GUIDELINES FOR OUR WRITTEN PRODUCTION





You are latter-day RobinsonCrusoe. You are stranded on a desert island. It´s been ten days since you got shipwrecked and you start losing hope of being rescued. In order to keep track of time you decide to write a diary.Your diary will be in the format of a blog. In groups of 3 to 4 students. You have to write your impressions of your life on the island, making an account of your daily activities. For such, we will be visiting the school´s cyber room every now and then: once to start the blog (choosing a name, writing an introduction, presenting yourself, giving background information to the creation of the blog); a couple of times to add information to it, and one last time to read your mates´blogs and write comments on them.

Pictures are highly welcome. Be creative. You can add ideas but cannot change the factual information in the story.

I come to Brazil and buy a little piece of land. I start to plant sugar in theese land. I stayed there for few years, but I remember that this wasn't what I want.

Robinson Crusoe Grupo 3C- Chapter 6 and 7- João Marcos, Hugo e Carlos-07/10/2010


I cross the island, and when I reach the other side and discover a rich vegetation. I Decided to build a cottage and agricultural plant some genera.
I decided too, to build a canoe off the island, but I build very far from the sea, so I can not carrage it to the sea because is very heavy and the distance is great.Then. I build another boat smaller and closer to sea. I found a parrot and stayed talking with him, his name was Poll.I spent the rest of my time reading the Bible.

I was exploring the Island when I saw a footprint. Later on I heard voices that I supposed were from cannibals. I was confuse about my emotions because I was happy and scared. I was scared from the cannibal's voices and happy to be survive ( yet ). One night, I heard lots of loud noises, thunders and as weird it can look a shoot. At the morning, after the storm, walking at the beach I saw a wreck of a spanish ship and at the midle of that wrecks I found other dog. On the beach, I hearned again that stranges voices. I was decided to follow them, because I was with weapons and I wanted to explore the rest of the island. When I was too close I saw that strange people in a kind of cannibal ritual. I can't stand there eacthing that, when a new victim was coming to die I shot at the murder that was going to pull out the victim's heart. I thought that every cannibal's would come to me, but that I was scared of themand they were scared of me. They ran to their canoes and I ran to help the victim, suddenly he was running from me becuse I think that I caused a bad impression with my gun. When I reached him I called Friday, because was the day that I found him. He was tall, had a dark skin, and about twenty - six years. I taught Friday to speak english.
                  
Chapter 11 and 12 -Carlos e João Marcos
Me and my new friend (Friday) we were walking when something was wrong, some natives, cannibals about thirth was at the beach and keeping a spanish prisoner. Friday and I do a kind of game, kill cannibals. At the final of the match he killed two of them and hurt three more. But suddenly I was the loser, I have just killed one and hurts two. The others cannibal ran away and we, me and Friday, save the prisoner. I'm feeling like a king because I know that my new friends would die for me, as I've saved their lives. One morning I was sleeping when Friday said in a loud voice : " THEY'LL COME BACK ". I saw a bat coming from the island I could see too that it was an English boat coming from an English ship. When they came closer I saw that something was wrong, there were three prisioners. In the afternoon, I went where they were. The prisioners were too frightened, but the other sailors were sleeping. I talked with them and they told me that had been mutiny on the ship, one of them was the capitain. I could die, but I decided to leave the island. I found out that they had two guns. So, I was with them in their ship. I told them my story and I gave them some food and drink, they were amazed to hear my story. Now we had to decide how to get the ship back and out of the island. We got the ship back and did somethings: we put three of the worst men in the cave and tied up the others at my bower. I said to the captain that I would stay one more night on the island, while we got the ship ready. That night I told to our prisoners my story, because they will stay on the island and I'll let them free. At last it was time to get home, on the 19th of  December 1686 I left the island. After twenty-eight years, two months and nineteen days. I was happy, because I was coming to home and to my family, but I was sad too because in that island I let all my thing and good memories. 

Chapter 14 - João Marcos
  I arrived to England in June 1867, after thirty-five years on the island. I found Yorkshire too different. My parents were dead. I went to London to know about my plantation in Brazil. In that city , I found my friend that saved me and Xury too from the sea off the coast of Africa. The captain told me that my plantation in Brazil was very well, so I wrote letters to the people in Brazil. Some time after they answered me and gave me money. And I discovered that I was a very rich man.
