Survival backpack.

This is the survival backpack that I made for our survivor. I put in some rope, a sleeping bag, a flint and steel rod, a first aid kit, a tent, and a torch.

The easiest thing was putting in all the images and the hardest part was writing what all of the equipment was needed for.

Fabulous finish.

In the past 2 weeks, we have been working on our fabulous finish.
For my fabulous finish, I drew a track shoe with some facts about Ghost.
The hardest thing was definitely when I broke my arm because I was halfway through going over with sharpie so it was hard to keep going, but with my friend's help, I got it done!

This time for our survivor we had to answer these questions.
The hardest thing was finding the information about each question, the easiest
thing was writing it all down.

What the S.T.O.P. acronym means.

S: Stop. Whatever you are doing just pause.

T: Take a breath. Re-connect with your breath.

O: Observe. Notice what is happening. What is happening inside you,
and outside of you?

P: Plan. Think about what to do.

How to find water.

1. One way to find water is to dig a hole in the ground and
then drink from there.

2. Use any and all containers you might have on you and fill them using
flowing water.

3. Tie the corners of a tarp around trees a few feet off the ground,
place a small rock in the center to create a depression, and let the water
collect overnight.

How to make a fire.

1. Use dry wood.

2. Flint and steel rod or matches.

3. Use some dried grass as a tinder which will be one of the key
things to getting your fire started.

Build a shelter.

1. Build on high ground so that animals will have less chance of getting you.

2. Away from water that can overflow in the night.

3. Have a sheltered area to sleep in.

Basic first aid.

In your first aid kit, you will need. . . 

1.Bandages and plasters, in case you get cut.

2.Scissors, in case you need to cut something.

3. And creams, for insect bites and stings.

Signaling for help.

1. Fire Distress flares so people will be able to locate you.

2. Use smoke and fire so that the smoke will show people where you are.

3. Whistle as loud as you can because people can recognize that noise well.

Knot tying.

KNOTS

 This week we have been learning how to tie some different types of knots.
We had to do at least 3 different types of knots and I choose to do the Reef Knot, the Overhand Knot, and Figure 8 Knot.
The Overhand Knot is good for if you want to hang togs up if you go camping, the reef knot is good if you want something to be tied really sturdy, and the figure 8 knot is good for stopping a line slide out of place 
I rate the Knots that I tied a four out of five because they were simple to tie but strong.
