"Know how ropes are made and demonstrate how to care for rope in thecorrect manner. Tie and know the practical use of the following knots:Overhand; Granny; Square; Slip; Double Bow; Two Half Hitches; Clove Hitch;Bowline.Class Periods: TwoObjectiveTo teach the value of a well kept rope and how to become skillful in tying basic knotsand to understand their uses.Teaching MethodsA. RopesUnder primitive conditions, man has used vines, reeds, fibers and leather thongs.These materials serve their purpose but since the earliest civilizations there isevidence of the use of rather sophisticated ropes made from cotton, variouswoods, and other natural fiber materials.Today rope is made from Manila fibre, sisal fibre, or hemp. It is also made fromnylon, plastic, and other synthetic materials which are highly resistant to rot ormildew, but each type have peculiarities, however, which negate some uses.Instructors should become familiar with test strengths, flexibility, rope life andother characteristics before putting rope to practical use.The best natural fibre rope is made from hemp. True hemp is rather scarce sothe better ropes we find on the market are made from Manila fibre. Sisal is onlyabout two-thirds as strong as Manila. The best ropes when life is at risk are thespecialized synthetic ropes.Rope is one of the most convenient materials for effecting temporary joints inmany materials. It is also an essential item in camping, sailing, mountaineering,caving, and other outdoor activities.Rope Care-The life of a rope may be prolonged if it is properly used and caredfor. Good rope care only involves following a few simple rules, which are:
1. Keep ropes as dry as possible. Never store a rope when it is wet,especially if it is Manila or sisal. Dampness in these ropes leads to aweakening of the fibers. Natural drying in the sun is best. Oven drying is tobe avoided as this will damage the fibers.2. Inspect ropes periodically for signs of damage along their length. Athorough examination will require you to look at the inside of the rope, aswell as the outside. The inner fibers should stay bright and new inappearance.3. When not in use, coil a rope and keep it dry. A regular coil should beclockwise, or to the right, because of the natural twist in the rope. If therope kinks when coiled, it is because a reverse twist has been given itwhile in use. To remove this, coil it counter-clockwise.4. Never step or walk on a rope that is laying on the ground.B. KnotsThe most efficient method of teaching knot tying is by:1. Demonstrating the procedure.2. Have the class follow the instructor, each using their own rope.3. Practice procedure until proficient.4. When more than one rope is involved in a knot, use ropes of differentcolors.To understand directions for knot tying, three definitions are first necessary:a. The standing part. The long part of the rope on which the individual worksin forming the knot.b. The bight. Turning the rope back on itself forms a loop. This is known as abight.c. The running end. The part with which the individual works.The Overhand Knot - Make a bight, bring theend of the rope up through it and draw it tight.This is the common knot used by all.The Granny Knot - This knot is now widelyused in first-aid bandaging in place of thesquare knot, which formerly wasrecommended. Make an overhand knot. Nowmake a second overhand, crossing the endover the standing part in the same way it wasdone before.
