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!

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!
