Learn how to handle challenges
P. 42
I think Shackleton and
his team would have faced
many challenges. First of
all, it was very cold and
there was snow and ice
everywhere. The area is
also very mountainous, so
they would have had to
climb with their essentials.
It would also be hard to
know where they were
going as the place is very
large and all looks the
same. On top of the
physical challenges, they
would have had great
mental challenges facing
those conditions and not
knowing what to expect
and whether they would
succeed.

Shackleton looked extremely old because of the
conditions but also because he was very worried about
the fate of his crew left behind.
Shackleton had to travel to South Georgia Island to get help to rescue the rest of his crew.
It was important to include a navigator so they would know where they were going
and not get lost.
Shackleton chose him because he wanted the crew left
behind to remain cheerful and positive and the man would
have had a negative influence on the crew.
P. 43
My group chooses Frank Worsley and Tom Crean as the two members for the rescue team.
Frank Worsley was an excellent navigator, so he could use his skills to guide them across the
dangerous sea. Tom Crean was strong, energetic, and brave, so he would be very useful on the
dangerous mission.
