Survival Strategy Comparison Answer Key

Students compare excerpts from Robinson Crusoe and Hatchet, focusing on how each character confronts a similar survival problem using different strategies. They analyze the effectiveness of each method, the character’s personality traits, and the long-term practicality of their choices. Reflection questions help students understand how problem-solving and survival themes differ by character and circumstance. This encourages critical thinking about decisions, resourcefulness, and priorities in challenging situations.
