  1. Inside my backpack I would have things things that could not be replaced such as a camera with lots of family photos and events as well as meaningful gifts like my grandmother's necklace. Since survival would be nice I would take a hand operated water pump and lots of protein filled snacks and vitamins. Lastly I would take all of my money as I can only carry so many cans of spam and there may be an opportunity to purchase food. If not money takes up almost no space anyway. When it comes to attire I would do what anne and her family did, wear warm heavy clothing in many layers. - C.M. 7a

  2. Great idea! Spam! It was a staple in army ration packs during world war 1 and 2.

    You might find this product of repacked spam quite funny:

  10. The things I would have in my bag would be all the survival essentials which include: flint and steel for fire because I don`t know if I will be staying indoors or out, a survival knife, a blanket and pillow, a water filter for clean drinking water, a water bottle to store the water in. Also I would bring an iPad with a solar panel charger in order to view what is happening in the outside world, my 16 year old brother`s clothes so I would have big clothes to keep me warm and if I had to hide for a few years I would have clothes that fit, and lots of non perishable foods such as canned foods. Those are all the things I would bring if I went into hiding.

  11. If I were to go into hiding and was only allowed to use my backpack to bring the things I needed to survive, I would bring the following items: a water filter and purification tablets to make drinkable water, flint and stone for making a fire to cook and keep me warm, non-perishable food such as freeze dried food rations to eat, a first aid kit in the case I get hurt, extra clothing to keep warm, a GPS or compass for travel directions, I.D. to prove who I am, gloves to keep my hands warm, warm hat to keep my head warm, rope in the case I need to climb down something, money for buying extra food or water, a sleeping bag to sleep in, a crank up flashlight so I can see in the dark, a tooth brush and toothpaste to brush my teeth, a plastic tarp for shelter and to keep me dry, a water proof jacket so I do not get cold and wet, a metal cup so I can put my food and water in, and a Swiss army knife so I can use it for cutting stuff. These are all the things I would bring if I were to go into hiding that would fit in my backpack.

  12. If I were to go into hiding I would pack a wide variety of things. For entertainment and to stay up to date with the world, I would bring my iPad, my phone and a solar charger. For survival purposes I would pack my Leatherman (like a swiss army knife) for cutting, fixing, or making things and some flint to start fires with. I would also pack a full water bottle with a filter, some non-perishable food and I would wear as many layers as I could like the Franks did. I would bring as much money as I could get, in case I passed other civilization so I could refill my rations. Another thing I would pack is a first aid kit with medicine and such because chances are if I'm hiding in some remote area there won’t be a hospital nearby. This is would I would bring.

  13. For packing to go into hiding, I would pack, food, water, my laptop so I could keep a journal on word document. I would also bring clothing, blanket, my hair brush, tooth brush and tooth paste. I would pack these things because, if I wasn't allowed outside my home, these things would keep me warm, happy and healthy
