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.

Robinson Crusoe Grupo 3B- Chapter 6
I decided to explore the island and at the river, where I had started and I had taken my rafts, I found lovely grass fields, with tabacco growing on the highter land. Then at the river, the water has finished, so I came into an area of woodland. There I found grapes and melons growing and further on a beatiful green area of the island I found orange, lemon and lime trees.  So I decided to stay where I was because I wood not need to move to the other part of the island to can eat fruits and  my hut was close to the sea and if a ship came near the island. On the 30° day of September, I completed a year on the island and I spent the day praying to God and fasting without eat and drink anything. I decided to plant the rice and corn that I had found after the rains. It was very dry and because this the plants did not come up until the next rains. So from them on, I learned to plant them just before the rains. This side of the island was much nicer than my side with flowers and lovely woods. There were a lot of parrots and several times, I managed to catch a young parrot. I wanted to carry him to my home and teach him to speak with me. When I got back to my hut, I spent a week resting there ans there I made a home for my little parrot, which I called Poll.

I decided that one day I wood had my own bread. But to this, I needed to work hard. To start, I re-planted all the corn that I have found. I planted that in two large areas near my hut, and put in hedges around them. While the corn was growing up, I decided to make things that were importants to do my bread. The first thing I needed were some pots, so I worked very hard to do a pot that could hold water, but I could . My next job was to find a way of grinding the corn. I found a wood and I spent a long time cutting it into the right shape. Then I burned and cut a hole in the middle and with much effort, I could grind the corn. I made made a kind of bread oven, and after the corn grew, I baked my first bread. So trying to escape at the island I made a canoe , but I couldn't get into the sea, because it was very heavy. I made a sail for it and when I could exit with the ship, I found that there were rocks going far out into the sea at that point. There were some very strong currents around the rocks, and the wind was blowing hard, so I waited there for two days. On the third day, I sailed away againd ,but the currents were very strong and my little boat was pulled far out to sea. At the time of the lunchtime, felt a little wind blowing up. It started to grew stronger and stronger and I sarted to sail back towards the island. I sailed away from the the currents and the wind continued to blow and blow. I couldn't happen what was hapenning: I came onto the shore.


Robinson Crusoe Grupo 3B- Chapter 8
I was exploring the beach, searching food when I found a footprints on the send. At the moment I thought that was of a canibal. I went ''home'' and protect myself because I was scared when I saw it. I pray a lot for Gosh save me. He was afraid because he didn't know if he was alone in the island.

It was another day, I was alone, sad and scared.I heard some voices, and I decided to follow them .When I found the place where they came from, I saw lots of canniballs doing a strange costume like one sacrifice. When those people were trying to kill the next victim I shot the caniball that was with the weapon. So I saved the the victim.

When he saw the two bodies in the sand he became petrified .

But I asked my self if he would forget everything that I teached him. When I asked it for he, he said that if me went back to his country, he would teach the people to be Christian and pray to God .And I told him that I would make him a canoe to he goes to his island, but he wanted me to go with him. When I sugested him to me went back to Europe and him to his island, he asked me why I was angry with he, because I wanted to send he to his country. Friday brought me a sword and asked me to kill him. In this moment, were tears in his eyes, and I saw how much he loved me. We saw canniballs on the island and thay were killing people. When Frinday said to me that the next man to be died wood be a european, I said to Friday that we musted to kill them. After, very people could run away but I and  Friday could achieve them and when Friday saw a man that couldn't speak and stand, he jumped on the canoe and started to cry and kiss him, because he thought that he was died. He told  me that the man was his father and because this, he was so worried. I gave some raisins to his father, and after Friday ran to my hut to prepare bread and give him water to drink.

I talked with the Spanish guy if he wanted to his men would like to come to the Island but I wasn’t comfortable in that situation because his men could treated me badly the Spanish man promised that this would not happen.He sayed that I was a very good person.
After plant a lot of  crops we had enough food for everybody I gave for my new friends tho guns and food and they had promise not hurt me and to do everything I told them because the set off to the mainland in a canoe. I was thinking that the man was arriving was a enemy, no a friend. I thought that anything was wrong because my island was not near any of the places where English merchant ships went and I discovered the wrong thing: there are eleven man, but three of them were tied up, because they were prisioners. The other people started to eat the prisioners and while this hapennedm, the sea leaved their boat on the sand. After I discover what was hapenning, I helped a captain gaving him guns to him and to his mans.

Robinson Crusoe Grupo3B Chapter 13
I and the others decided to get the ship back. There were twenty-six man on the ship. They knew the other sailors would come back looking for the others and we didn't want them to take the boat away. While we were thinking, we heard the ship fire a gun. They were calling their men back. As the men didn't go back, they decided to send ten men to the island. When they arrived they called for the others. Nobody answered and seven of them  decided to look for the others while the other four stayed on the boat. The seven men decided to go back to the boat and the captain became very worried. So I had an idea: I started shouting because I wanted the men to follow the shouts. They did whatt we planned and after while we captured them. The captain went back to the ship and in the following morning he had his ship back. We could all go home.
