Survival Guide - Creating a Survival Challenge

Hey G Tent

It's time for you to create your own survival test and answer similar to the ones written in the Stanley Yelnats Survival guide. 

Look at the examples below:

You and a partner will create your own Camp Green Lake Survival Test.  Using the same format as above create a clever but important survival test.  Post your full test below. 

"I ran into the tent door" 

Caveman

Caveman

Stanley accidentally bumps The Lump in the wreck room and is left to defend himself.  However X Ray comes to his defence and saves Stanley from getting pounded.  Why would X Ray do this?  There are obvious answers but for the critical thinkers there are some clever and well hidden reasons for X Rays actions.

Share your response Why Did X Ray save Stanley from fighting The Lump

Engage in dialogue with 3 other people about his reasons.

Prove your point with real world examples

Welcome to our online Math Problem Solving Poster exhibit.

In this post you will see an array of constructed posters by the grade 87 summer school split class.

The students were introduced to photography and worked on using composition, colour saturation, contrast, and tilt shift focus to construct an enticing photo.

Using the application OVER the students then added a specific quote to go with the photo to make a poster that is a motivational guide to problem solving.  

Browse and comment on these tremendous creations. 

The pictures are listed below and categorized 

Look at the photos and then comment specifically about 5 of them in the appropriate area

Comment on the effectiveness of the poster as a Math Problem Solving guide

Is the quote helpful?

Is the photo and quote a good combination?

How is the quality and creativity of the photo?

these are all things that can be commented on 

We want to be positive and encouraging but at the same time provide feedback that will lead to improvement next time.

Holes Part 1

Holes 

The motto of Camp Green Lake is that is you take a bad boy and make him dig a hole everyday for 18 months he will eventually become a good boy

Does physical labour build character and make you a better person?  Use evidence from the real world to defend your position and then engage in dialogue with two other students to restate and attempt to sway others to share your opinion.

Recall that it is important to respond to everyone that responds to your response and actively seek out two students with opposing views to engage in dialogue

"You thirsty?"

"Yes Mr. Sir"

"Well, get use to it"
