I have always enjoyed survival stories and the "romanticism" of being stranded on a deserted on an island, rather like "Swiss Family Robinson." All the titles in the Survival series were intriguing; however, these are tips I would like to be most in need of using!
Curricular connections can be made with fifth and sixth grade science units. Incorporate passages from the book and have students create their own solar still, study first aid, and work through simple survival scenarios.

Tim O'Shei's first writing experiment came at age eleven, when he wrote a poetry book and submitted it to almost every New York publisher. He received several rejection slips (and not one contract) but he kept writing. More than ten years, a thousand magazine articles, and two books later, O'Shei is still a writer. He also teaches elementary show more school and gives his students the chance to do something he dreamed about: be published show less
