Survival

Hello! We're going to try a Fast Write today! This is a pre-reading strategy for you to think about your prior knowledge--what you already know--on a topic.

Guidelines:

1. Start a new page in your journal. Write the topic: survival.
2. Explore your thinking through writing about the following idea: the human will and what it takes to survive harsh environments
3. DO NOT STOP WRITING. If you get stuck, rewrite a phrase or word until a new idea pops into your head.
4. You will write for roughly 6 minutes.


MODEL: Think of a topic for me to fast write on so I can model this activity.
