Warm- Up Activity

Desert Island

You are marooned on an isolated desert island. It is warm, without any dangerous creatures, offers plenty of easily obtainable bananas, coconuts, other fruits and fish to eat. You will also be provided with fresh water and tree shelter. You have time on your hands! Write for 10-15 minutes about the following:

1. What and who would you miss? Please explain your answer.

2. What would you be glad to get away from? Please explain your answer.

3. What two objects would you choose to have with you from your home to make life more bearable and give your time on the island more interesting? (The phone, radio, and television are not an option!)

4. How would you cope with your isolation and structure your time?
