The task is to create an entire Travel Packet/Presentation. Your job is to be sure that travelers in the area will survive under similar conditions as Brian is experiencing in the novel.
1. An extensive study of the area is required. This may include maps and topographical information. The geography, weather, and climate conditions will also be important.
It is your job to research the physical area of the Canadian wilderness and the area where Brian is stranded. Maps of the area, topographical features, landforms and other interesting geography should all be included in displays, posters or maps. Include drawings of Brian's camp, the lake, the area around the scenes in the book. Include details about weather conditions and possible disasters. Research Brian's weather adventure in great detail.
2. A basic understanding of airplane terminology is important. The early part of the novel finds Brian piloting a small aircraft on his own. See the vocabulary list for ideas.
Your job is to understand the plane thoroughly. You need to know the terminology and vocabulary associated with the parts and flight in general. You must research small planes, how they fly, how they navigate, and any other details you think are important. Be sure to include details about airports and transmitters.
3. A thorough first aid section should be included. It is important to include the types of injuries and accidents that can actually occur in this wilderness, so pay attention as you read the novel.
Your job is to teach others how to survive under the same harsh conditions Brian faces. What types of first aid information did Brian need? In addition to that, what are some of the basic first aid rules that everyone should know?
45. Animals play a big part in Brian's adventures. Research the animals common to the area. Be sure to include information about the animals' behavior in the wild and around humans.
Your job is to understand and report on the animals and plants of the area. You should be prepared to fully report on the animals that Brian comes into direct contact with during the novel. In addition to this, your research could include an variety of plant, animals, birds, fish, reptiles, and amphibians common to the area.
You are more than just responsible for learning details for your part of the project. You need to report to others what you have learned through a Travel Packet/Presentation.
