"We were all adventurous on our land. Some of us would go
and explore and some of us would just stay on the land but we liked
being there."
" We did not have to worry the land made us feel safe and
protected. It felt this way because it belonged to us and we knew
the land. We had been there before."
"We felt alone in the big area because it was peaceful and
calm but we were not scared to be there by ourselves. It was safe."
"The land made us feel tiny and it was a scary thought to
have the responsibility for all of this land. We were not sure if
we liked that."
"If someone else came to our land it would not feel safe anymore.
There would be rules about how to keep the land for other generations.
Very strict rules!"

Differences in the Diary Entries

"What we saw on our diary entries were different because our landscape
was different. We saw different things and animals and this made
us feel different and think about different things."
"We both felt small but for different reasons. It was the
landscape that made us feel small. The Big Rock made us feel small,
the mountains made us feel small, the trees made us feel small and
the size of the territory made us feel small." Different landscapes
same feelings. We found this interesting."
"One of us wanted to go east and one wanted to go west and
the other school was just happy to stay where they were. We were
all happy to do our own thing."
"Some of us would share our land and some of us would not
share. If we were to share their would be rules attached to the
sharing. They would have to keep it the way they found it."
