1) First Aid Kit
Reason: In case i got injured, I would need something to cover my wound.
2) Water Bottle
Reason: We cannot drink seawater and dew water is too little for a person. (I think)
3) Knife
Reason: I can use it to collect woods by cutting down trees and making fire AND making a spear to catch fish.
4) A Toy OR A Robot
Reason: To prevent myself from dying from boredom.
5) Sleeping Bag
Reason: I would not like to sleep on the sand or on the filty grass.

If i am in a deserted island, i would bring.....
- first aid kit
i will not able to know if there is hospital ,houses or a place where i could stay when i am injured .So it will be better if i bring my first aid kid and i can use it any time when i am injured .
2. a sleeping bag
if i am cold, especially in night, i can snug in to my sleeping bag and sleep peacefully through the night.Instead of shivering ....through the night .
3.matchstick/lighter/things that can make fire
if i am cold, i can build fire, to warm myself .I might also want to leave the place so if i see a passing helicopter/plane ....passing i might want to build a very large fire to tell people that i am here!!!
4.bottles(with lots and lots of water!!!)maybe a kettle
i would never want to drink seawater!!!!I would drink up all the water from the bottles i bring.After i finish ,i would like to use my lighter(things that produce heat)to heat up the seawater. than i will get fresh water!
5.book
oh ! also not to forget about a book! Your favourite book or other things that keep u away from boredom !!!If you are the only person at the island, you sure will feel bored
sorry that i wrote to much [if] ha ha

Reflection on Hatchet Debate
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.
