I would bring a knife, a compass, a first aid kit, a jacket and a lighter. I would bring a knife to kill animals for food, cut the stems of a plant for water and protect myself from predators. I would bring a compass so that I can find my way and know which direction I am going, if I get lost. I would bring a first aid kit because if I get injured, I can bandage myself so it can heal faster. I would bring a jacket to cover myself and keep myself warm at night, so when I sleep, I will not catch flu so easily. I would bring a lighter to cook the animals I killed, use it as torchlight to find my way in the dark and build a fire to keep mItalicyself warm.

Reflection on Hatchet Debate

Within 1 hour, 39 pupils spoke out and shared some of their thoughts on a given topic and in so doing allowed others to have insight of their own beliefs and values - think of the 'Perfect Home' discussion.

I would like to applaud the 39 individuals for bringing such a professional quality to the debate - all contributed to its success and the 'energy' that resulted from this concerted effort will be converted into greater motivation for 6 Grace.

Please take time to reflect and share your thoughts on the following:

How did this debate affect my perceptions of myself?
In what ways did the debate fit my learning style?
Has it influenced the way I perceive English and Literature?
What did the debate show us about the 'tricks' authors use to captivate the heart and mind of the reader?

I had such pleasure hosting the debate and I felt the true magic of 6 Grace.

Please post your thoughts. Thank you.
