MY GREAT HIKING TRIP



You went hiking with some friends, took off on your own for a while, and got lost.

You've wandered around all day looking for your friends, but you can't find them anywhere.

What is the first thing you do? Have you brought food, water, and maps along, or are you the freewheeling type who just comes as you are? What thoughts are going through your head? How do you feel? Write about the situation.


The first thing i did when i got lost was panic. I was wondering if anybody was ever going to find me. What if i got attacked by a bear or some other animal.

The second thing I did was try and look for supplies to make a shelter. I looked for different tree branches and leaves and different plants to lay over top of the branches.

After I did that I would try and make a fire. Luckily I still had all of the kindling in my pocket So I started the base and added all of the extra branches I had used to make the shelter.

It took me about an hour to get the fire started and now it was getting dark so i unrolled my sleeping bag and tried to go to sleep but i couldn't. That night all I could think about was food.

The next morning I woke up nice and early to get some grub. I brought a fishing pole so I used that to fish. The fish were biting real good and that's when i saw my friends. I yelled as loud as I could then they turned around and looked at me. We went home as soon as we could and when we got home we didn't tell a word about what happened that weekend.

3 minute drill

The boy was enthralled with all of the presents under the tree. He was really happy with Santa Claus this year. Last year all Santa brought him was bed sheets and pillow cases. This year Santa brought him new hockey equipment. There was gloves, sticks, a jersey, shoulder pads, elbow pads, shin guards, and even hockey socks.

Yes, he thought, this is exactly what I wanted. Now all the other kids won't make fun of my hand-me-down equipment. He was just starting to try everything on, when his mom came downstairs.

"Henry," she called
, worried. Oh, no, Henry thought. I promised mom that I wouldn't try anything on until she was here. Last year I had gotten some hockey equipment from my older cousin, and I had tried it on when my mom was out with some friends. When she came back she was very angry with me because I had made a crack in the stick and forgot to put one of the socks away in the bag. The sock ended up being my dog's favourite chew toy, he wouldn't give it up.
"Ummm... Just a minute." He replied.
"Henry, what are you doing down here?" His mom asked, "You promised me that you wouldn't try any of the equipment on until I was here. Remember what happened last year?"
"Yes Mom, I remember, I just couldn't wait! Santa gave me all new equipment! did you see that?
"Yes dear, I saw it all! if you aren't going to listen to me and what I say, Why do I even bother to talk? Maybe Santa wont come to The house next year. I will request for him not to come!
" But you have to ! Santa has to Visit every kid !
