Team: Survival at Sea






















For this activity Mr. Olson gave us a sheet of paper with a list of survival materials after a ship being lost at sea. He gave us time to number off from which we thought was the most important material to the least. Then he grouped us up and gave us time to discuss the value of the materials with them. After that we got together as a class and we saw how the official Coastguard had numbered them off and why.This activity was very interesting to me because it taught me how different my logic was compared to my team's. It revealed a lot of complications and a lot of reasoning and problem solving. Something that to me made complete sense of keeping was pretty useless for some of my team mates. We also realized that some of the things that were on there we didn't quite know how to use or would only be useful if we had its compliment. It was interesting because i've never really had a survival activity to help guide my decisions and my logic--pretty much i have no survival instinct. I hope this really helped for the future in case anything is to ever happen to me.
