jimenas journal themes trapted by th ice

Ice can be helpful becouse its water and it can help thirsty climbers to drink something. People who go to the ice can make igloo´s as a little house. It could be dangerous in a way that if you fall inside a big large ice you can droun. It may freeze you if you don t find shelter.
Antartica was really cold and dangerous. These men had to be very brave to do these expeditions. Sometimes it wasn´t really easy to do them. Im sure these trip they did left them braveness and courage inside of them. They learned a lot just as we did reading a summary of their expeditions.
Antartica is a great place to visit, just that you need to be brave and have a purpose to go so you don´t give up. Theres many things you could learn and be proud of after the trip. For example going there reflects you on what you were doing. Go there, theres not other place you could go becouse Antartica is the best place to be these days! Imagine your self there in a place full of peace and love. Theres no way i can explain this miricle, so go there and have fun !!!

Ernesto´s journal

The ice is the best thing you can use to cure an injoury. The ice make that the injoured place contract so it stops expanding and herting. But the excess of ice in your body make the veins stop carring blood to your heart and you can die.

Daniel's Journal Trapped on Ice

Ice: Helpful or Dangerous?
You all know what is ice,the thing in the Poles or the one from the snow,but for what it really works and helps.I that the ice really helps reduces swelling on sport injures that you can get playing soccer,volleyball,or tennis.It can also help reducing the fever putting the the ice on your head.The ice can turn in cubes to keed the liquid you are drinking or the ice on the refrigerators keep the food fresh.The ice can also be mortal.The icebergs are very dangerous because it can crash with boats.A good example of that is the Titanic.In U.S.A and in other cold countries in winter the ice stay on the roads and a lot of cars crash.A very dangerous thing is when the ice freezes the wings of the airplane that males that the airplane crash.When the ice melts it can cause avalanches too.

Dear Shack:

Hi Shack, I read your book callled Trapped on Ice and I am astonished what you suffer to be in there.You were very brave to be in there.In a moment you were going to die?How you feel when the Endurance sinked and you were trapped on the Antartica?How did you control your crew?I think they will go crazy.Do it was fun sliding in a slide 1,500 long?How did you feel being trapped in ice?Finally, how did you feel knowing you will go home?I am waiting that you respond me.

Your fan,

Daniel

denisse's journal

1. List reasons why ice can be helpful or dangerous.
Helpful:
- It can help you to freeze up things like for example food.
- It can also be very helpful when you hit your self; you put ice in the harmed part and it won't get big.
- Ice can help you when you are thirsty; you just add ice to the drink and it will be very refreshing.
Dangerous:
- You can die in ice by hypothermia.
- It can be very dangerous if you stick your tongue to ice because it can stick to the ice and it may rip off (it is very painful!).
- You can also paralyze a part of your body if you put it in the ice for a long period of time.

2. Write a letter to Shack. Ask about his experience being trapped by the ice.
Dear Shack,
I read about your experience in ice. It was very dramatical and excited! But at the same time it was very dangerous. How did you felt when you saw that the Endurance was swallowed by the cold hole of ice? What did you think? What did you feel when you and your crew where trapped by the ice? Were you scared?
Hope everything is OK!
Denisse

5. Write a paragraph that persuades people that Antarctica is the best place to visit.
Antarctica is a beautiful, cold place. It is full of snow, ice, or cold water. There are incredible animals like sea beasts or penguins. If you go; you should take a lot of clothes that are hot because you are going to freeze! Also take a pair of big cotes so that you use them when you are in the special walks through the glaciers. You should definitely go to Antarctica because is a very beautiful place to visit with the family and friends!

Paulina`s journal

Ice is very helpful in different ways because they can calm many lessions in our body. For example with ice you can prevent that in your body can appear purple spots after you hit yourself. Also is very helpful when somedays are so hot that the ounly solution that you have tonot been so hot is to use ice to be cold for a short or long time. Ice alson is very important because can conserve food.But we can say that ice is not so helpful some time. It could be so dangerous that sometimes people may die in some ocations. Many times when it is winter and snows in some places there is very cold and sometimes people get ill because of the ice that is very cold.

Dear Shack:

I´m very sorprice of how you could survive in those conditions in the ice. You coud die, but you were so perseverant and your ideas were so intelligent that you helped many people that they could die too. Also I think that a person that never went to an expedition very risk culd be to dangerous to amazing. If I were you I would give up and die, but you didn´t do that and that was very incredible that a person didn´t have that experience before and I admires you very much.

Do you want to have adventures in the ice? Well I have your solution to this douts.You can go go and see many stuff that you would not see in another place. If you want more information call:12345-6789

Antartica, The Best Place To Visit



Antartica is a continent in south Earth, overlying the South Pole. All of Antartica is surrounded by sea, so its like a freezing Island, so don´t forget to bring a lot of warm coats, because in this wonderful continent, we don´t want any person of dying of hypothermia! Make the cold, ice, and all cold stuff at a side, and go to the wonderful hot Jacuzzis and the saunas in the "Not So Cold Hotel" at 20 miles from the port. If you are an adventurer, the Hotel got an kiosk for you, climbing, skying, and all the stuff you can do on ice and snow. If you wanna stay comfortable, check out the suites, or the bungalows near the hotel. For the young people, the hotel got some pools, and some playground inside the Hotel. In Antartica, don´t enjoy that hotel, enjoy the beautiful continent that is full of freezing life.

Felipe Volio Trapped By the Ice

Ice is a very usefull resource, but ice is also very dangerous. It is helpfull because when you are dying of thirst, you can melt ice and then drink it as cold water. Also when you get injured you can use the ice as a medicine and put it on top of the injury. But not that long in your skin. But as I was telling you it has its terrible problems. For example when you are skying or walking in an ice mountain and you fell. It can even kill you! So we can use ice but we have to be careful.

Dear Sack,

Hi. How are you doing? I was just thincking in some crazy questions that I ll like to ask you. First of all I was asking that didnt you wanted to kill your self by being lost in that huge place full of ice? Also that how did you felt when they came to rescue you? Didnt you just wanted to shout and cry? I m really anxious of knowin what you tought at that moments. Please answer me .
Your friend, Felipe Volio

Trust me, you really want to go to Antartica!

Madeline's Journal

Trapped by the Ice!

When you’re in cold places, you may have to use and deal with ice. Ice can sometimes be effective or other times it can be hazardous. When you confront ice, you can make it useful by making it beneficial for the situation you’re in. Some reasons why it can help are: you can melt the ice and use it as drinking water, store food and drinks so they don’t go rancid quickly, or use it as a medicine to relieve swelling and pain, but not for too long on your skin. Unfortunately, in some cases ice will cause damage. For example, it can hurt you if you slip and fall by getting a cut or a broken bone, it can cause frostbite, or it can block passages for walking or boats.

“May 20th, 1916
Dear diary: Today is the day they rescued me from the freezing continent of Antarctica. When I saw the light and heard the sound of the big ship coming toward us, I could not believe my eyes. At that moment I was terribly hungry and thirsty because I had not eaten hardly anything for days. My heart was pounding with excitement. Thirty minutes later after I saw the ship, I felt a warm blanket on my back. One of the sailors had placed it on me. I felt excited, relieved, warm, happy, grateful, and saved. This was one of the best days of my life!”

Come on to one of the best trips of your life, Antarctica. It’s a fun, adventurous journey that you will never forget. You will see and feel some of the most drastic weather in your life; therefore you will have to wear lots of warm comfortable clothes. You will experience some of the most risky but outstanding events of your life. But you won’t only experience things you will also see beautiful sites and stunning wildlife. So come to Antarctica and live some of the most treasured experiences of your life. Remember to brush up on first aid and safety rules and to pack the right luggage items for this trip.

Alonso's Journal

Ice is good for many reasons because it keeps food frozen for it not to get roten and its necesary to preserve organs for transplants and it keep the liquids cold. But ice is also dangerous it can kill people or animals, if they froze because of ice. The ice is hard and could cause dange if it hits someone or something.
Dear Shack,
I read your story it amazing how you and your crew survived those difficult times. How do you feel about going back to antartica in a new expedition after that difficultt experience.If I were you I would be very scared.Let me know any other adventures you go throght.
Sincely, Alonso

Ice
Ice can be heplful when you are on the beach and everyhting around you is really hot so you just put a couple of ice cubes and tanaaaan!!! It can also be helpful when you have a injury and just by putting a cube of ice in top of it the pain will be almost gone. Is can also hepl us to feel refreshed after doing excercise or just to enjoy drink it with a soda at the movies with your friends!!! But ice can also be extremley dangerous. It can get to kill you whenthe temperature is really cold and it can break will you are playing, skating, or walking on it and that causes you to fall into the cold waters under it and you die because its to cold for humans body.


Dear Shack,
My name is Maria Luisa Santos and I read a incredible book about your expirience being trapped in the ice but i still have some doubts about how you felt and what was your reaction. Did you thought you were really going to survive? Was there someone in the crew who encouraged everyone? Who was the person you missed and thought about the most in the journey? What was the material thing you wished the most while you were lost in Antartica? What did everyone did in their mean time? Write, sing, read, talk, cry? Is there smetyhing you miss from Antartica? Would you do that dangerous journey again knowing what would happen?
Waiting For your answer,
Luisa

Antartica



Hi, Shack

I hope everything is going fine and wish you are having a great time. You see I heard about your trip that you made to the Weddel Sea and that you had to survive for to whole years out on the sea!!! So I would like to ask you some questions about that grueling trip. First, what was the first thought that crossed your mind while you saw land fade away and you going out into the open sea? And, what were the first directions you gave to the crew, and what did they sayed at the time you were completely lost? How did you manage to survive against the giant walrus and how did you react when the boat freezed and sank into the sea??? Well I would appreciate that you have the time to answer my questions.

Sincerely,

Isabel

My eyes were red and hurt because of the cold and I had been years traveling on sea....but could this be real? Maybe this was one of my other thousands mirages that I had had. I lost all hope and just sat back waiting for the mirgae to leave my had and really see what was in front of me....sea. Just then I heard up from high "LAND!" What? Could it be true? I got up and saw again at what I had called a mirage...it was truly land!!! I screamed and started to jump in the air! It was true after years of being in the sea seeing land was being in heaven itself. I started to follow Shack's directions.All of the boat that once looked like a ghost ship now was filled with life. All men in the boat with their cracked hands, lips, their horrible smell started to pull strings and take out the sail. I was so happy, I thought I would never see again my wife. I had a huge smile in my face that I just couldn't take off. Soon we were in land people soon recognized us and inmediately started to bring food and other things that I had needed in that trip. They also called a helicopter to take us all home. After a while a heard I terrible sound...we all ran to the boat, but we were to late it had sank and was now frozen.

The ship Endurance was a great lost, we would all miss but at least now we were save in land and soon to be back to our families.

Antartica is a wonderful place. In every corner there is an new adventure for you to enjoy to the limit. Come and visit Antartica you will be so amazed by the incredible mountains, and dazed by its whole beauty. Even though Antartica is a cold place you will never feel a single thing because you will be so dazed by this World of Wonders. And every night you will have the best light show in the whole in the world, you just have to go outside of your tent and take a look at the skies. The Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis is something you cannot miss!!! Come to Antartica and discover a new world that will amaze every time.

Maria Eugenia`s Journal

Ice is freeze water. In some cases it can be helpful, but in some cases it may be dangerous. For example: If you are very tired and you need a cold drink and you only have a hot drink, you put some ice on it and it becomes cold. Or if you are injured you just put ice on the wound and it removes the inflammation. However ice can be dangerous too. For example if you are in the middle of the sea and the water gets freeze you get stock on the middle of the ocean. Or if you are walking and you step on ice you can fell backwards and break your column.

Hey Shack,

This is Maria Eugenia and I would like you to answer me some questions. I learned a lot about your adventure, but I will like to know these: What did you thought when you found out that you were trap in the middle of the sea? What did the crew did while they were in the middle of the sea, without hope? Do you liked the experience or did you prefer that it wouldn't happen? Why the explorers are so competitive?

Thank you for your time. I would really like your answer.

Sincerely,

Maria Eugenia Mesalles

Antarctica is a wonderful place to visit, especially to hike. Because it has the highest mountains of all the continents. Even though Antarctica is the coldest, driest, and windiest continent, it is a really cool place that would give you wonderful memories.

Antartica
Antartica is a very snowy,cold place in our world,but it is a very interesting place.Antartica is made almost entirely of ice and glaciers.There are many different peaks in its mountains.Antartica can be a confusing place to travel because the fog doesent let you see past 5 meters.
dear Ernest,how did you tell your company that the mountain was impassable?How did they react? Would you repeat this journey and if so why?I think it was not only brave of you to save the people at Elephent Island,rather patriotic.What would you have done different on this journey?How did you react when you knew it was over?well it has been great writting this letter, I hope you can read it.

Diegos Journal

Ice is sometimes very helpfull and sometimes not. it is helpfull when you want to take a cold drink. it could be very dangerous when you are in a plays that snows and you are hiking. Because is the ice falls from the top you could be very injured. Also if you are in a boat, the water could freese and you are stucked there.
It was the coldest day in the jurney. We finnally got to open water. The waves slammed foriously to the three boats. I thaught we were all going to die. The men were seasick. The worst of all, they were dehydrated. They could bearly swallow the few things we had. Finally we saw something in the distance, it was land it was the elephant island!
Antartica is the best place to visit if you want and exiting adventure around the snow! You tan see a lot of interesting and giant animals. If you want a very nice vacations and meet the snow Antarica is the place to visit.

Andres'Blog

Have you ever been in ice?Well being in ice can be very dangerous,but also ice can be very helpful.Some reasons of whay ice is helpful is tahat because the ice can protect you for going down to the water that is freezing.But ice can be very dangerous also because if yuo get traped in ice you can move because is very cold so yuo can't move and you can die because you can't move and because you're freezing.
Dear Shack,

I wanna know some things about you.Shack whatdo yuo feel when you were trapped in the ice?What do yuo think when you are trapped in ice?Do yuo like doing that?
Well I hope you answer me this questions.Sincerly,Andres.

Well I think Antartica is a very nice place to visit because you will see animals you wont't see in any other place in the world,also you will feel that you are freezing and there's is the only place in the whole worldf you will feel that.

Andre´s blog

Ice is very helpful in the entire word. You need ice because ice is frozen water. Also to drink from it. It is also dangerous because you can be trapped by the frozen ice, or be dead wit out food.

I was trapped by the frozen water, it was horible we were out of food. Many people of my crew died because of the frozen ice. I allmost died but a fiew of people were dead and in tha tmoment bfore I died people rescued me. I was very happy but sad at the same time because most of my crew died.

Antartica is a great place to visit, but the risks are very high. You can see great animals like penguins,birds, and much more. I recomend a trip to this great place.

THE ICE OF ANTARTCA!!!

1.Ice can be helpful because: first, you can drink cold water instead of hot or warm water, ice is also helpful when someone is hurt, you can put ice on top of the injure, and when you are going to a camp you can put ice, to freeze the food. Ice can also be dangerous because when you are in a place were is very cold, you can die freezed. Also you can slip on the ice and get an injure, a cut, or you can brake a part of your body.
2.Helo Shack, I just wanted to know how was your experience being trapped by the ice? Was it scary? Did you have fear? What crossed you mind? Did you think your men were going to die? I think you were very brave because if I were there I will die or faint for two things, first I would be sooo scared I would faint, and two, I would die from freezing, or from not eating well. Good bye, have a great day, Valeria Monturiol R.
5.Antartica isa the best place to visit!!! You can see lots of animals that you never see and there is the best hotel, it has a very comfortable room from two persons to eight persons.
