Hatchet
By April Leachman

Clip to ScrapBook   
I have taught Hatchet to my six graders for years. We have an outdooor classroom at our school. I divide the class into teams ( I usually put the girls on one team and the boys on another).I tell each team they are lost in the wilderness and the sun is just about to go down so they they have have use what they have around them to build a shelter in 20 minutes. I give each team a shoestring just like Brian had,and I have them build a shelter. The kids love it!
