This fun class teaches students how to make and use 12 survival tools from easy household objects.
 In the class I will demonstrate how to make or use the following survival "tools."

1. Egg Carton Fire-starter
2. Dorito Fire starter
3. Terra Cotta Heater
4. Plastic Bottle Fish Trap
5. Opening a Can Without a Can Opener
6. T-shirt Water Filter
7. Clothes Insulator
8. Gallon Jug Desk Lamp
9. Soda can tab fish hooks
10. 2 liter bottle rain collector
11. Mylar Blanket Emergency Lens
12. Duct tape Snow Goggles
 
With the use of Power Point slides, pictures, videos and live demonstrations, the above survival hacks will be explained and/or created.  

Students are welcome to make as many of the hacks as they wish in class- with the exception of the fire starters. These can be practiced with a parent or other responsible adult outside of class. A list of materials will be provided. Most of the materials can be found around the home. 

At the end of class, students can share other survival hacks that they are familiar with,  Questions and discussion from students will be encouraged. 

No previous knowledge of the subject matter is required.
 
My classes are very relaxed and a great place for learners to engage and discuss interesting ideas and topics related to camping, hiking and survival.
