Here I will teach you how to build a basic shelter. First of all you need to find a short, forked tree and a straight stick that is a little longer than you are. Lay one end of it in the fork of the tree and the other end of it on the ground. Then find other sticks to go up against the long stick on each side. Make it just big enough for you to fit in and make a small doorway so it will keep your body heat in. Next cover it with a thick layer of grass, mud and leaves. Now you have a simple shelter.  After I completed this shelter I slept in it for a couple hours in a storm to test how it worked.  I stayed warm and dry.
