  4. In Chapter five Brian recalls what one of his previous english teachers , Mr.Perpich once told him. He said to always think positive. To always stay positive and stay on top of things. Brian try's to take this to heart and think about how it could be worse and he try's to think as positively as possible in the situation he's in.

  5. Brian recalls a lesson from his English teacher, Mr. Perpich. That lesson was to always stay positive and to stay on top of everything. Also, to get motivated! He used this to see what he had and what he could use it for. In addition, he remembered that his teacher said that "you are your most valuable asset. Don't forget that. You are the best thing you have." This is what motivated him to actually get up and explore.

  6. Mr.perpich tells him to look on the positive side and get motivated. To get on the top side of things. he told him that yourself is the most vaulable asset.This helps him start doing things like building a shelther and stop messing around.he thinks they may not find him for a feq days but he couldn't just wait.

    In the lake, the english teacher reminded Brian that he needed to be calm and don't think of bad stuff, like be positive. Such as and think what your doing. And don't give up, like be motivated.

    Brian's English teacher Mr. Perpich had always said "Get motivated and be positive" and "You are your most valuable asset". Brian recalls these words while sitting by the lake, and decides to get motivated.

    In Chapter 5, Brian was sitting by a lake and saying he was hungry. then, he remembers his english teacher told the class one time to "be positive" and "stop fooling around". Brian realizes that sitting around complaining to himself wont make his hunger go away, so he tries to find some food.

  16. Mr Perpich (Brian's English Teacher) taught Brian to always think positive when things turn negative. When Brian is stuck in the woods he thinks that everything was hopeless so he gave up. But then he remembered his teachers words to analyze on what you have to overcome the situation. Mr Perpich taught his kids to always be motivated. When Brian remembered his words he made sure he was motivated and he made a survival plan to find a shelter and search for food. Without his English teacher's help he couldn't have survived in the wilderness.

  18. Im going to add on to what Therese is saying.
    To stay positive he thought about when he would get saved. He believed that he would get saved in a day or two. Brian was also thinking that he would get killed in the forest by wild animals so he created a shelter that protect him from various things.

  20. Brian's English teacher-Mr. Perpich, had always told Brain to stay positive and stay on top of things, this lesson made Brain to think clearly, and this also motivated Brain. The motivation had became one of the most important key to Brain's survival.

  23. Brians english teacher, Mr.Peprich told brian to always stay positive no matter what, so instead of brian sitting there in the tree, hit might motivate him to do something , motivate him to survive. i think the quoter or saying mr Peprich had thought brian will be one of his key to survive,
