Divergent Chapter 8 Task

This is the excerpt from chapter eight where Tris explains the tattoo she wants:

“Yes,” I say. “Three of these flying birds.”

I touch my collarbone, marking the path of their flight—toward my heart. One for each member of the family I left behind.”

People get tattoos for a variety of reasons here are some of the most popular reasons:

• Tattoos represent a loved one, living or passed away
• Religious reasons including crosses and the face of Jesus or Mary
• Military tattoos representing patriotism
• A dumb mistake (tattoos can be removed, so this reason is diminishing)

 Just for fun — just “because” a friend did it

If you were to get a tattoo, what would it be of and what would the reason be for getting it. Draw a picture of your tattoo or find a picture of it.
