Time
In what two ways does Brian measure time? Which way has the most meaning for him and why? Can you think of any other way that he could measure time? Explain.
Brian tells time by the events that happens. He marks the days and events on his rock. Now he can remeber them when he wites them on the days on the rock.
Brian measures time in two different ways. One of those ways is measuring time by important events. The other way he measured time was by putting a mark on a rock in his shelter each day. The way that means most to Brian is by the important events that go on in the wilderness. Another way that Brian could measure time could be he could gather sticks or rocks and put one in a pile each day that goes by.
