Blog #4

EVERYBODY ANSWER:
  1. I am not experienced with this type of survival, there's only kids here with no adults to supervise us. Hunting for survival, building shelter, and taking a lot of risks to get out of the island? Not used to it.

  2. I feel that they don't realize in the crisis that everybody is in. All they basically think that we will do all the work and get us all rescued.

  3. Follow Jack's orders and hunt the animals, and also carelessly don't do anything else other than play and hunt.

  4. To camouflage in hiding spots when hunting animals, and to show the sign of the hunter.

  5. It doesn't foreshadow anything, other than scaring things that see the painted face chasing after them or seeing some weird person following them.

  6. I feel like I'm some kind of Indian hunter, little like a football player. Nothing special, it just catches attention and scares animals and other creatures that see it in the dawn. It might be to camouflage too.

  7. Really, I have to say because it might too far out of notice that it's an island. Another reason is that Jack had let the fire out and the ship didn't notice there was something going on the island to be saved.

  8. Jack carelessly let the fire out when hunting, actually did not care at all about that job and all Jack cared about was pride and food.



IF YOU ARE SIMON:
  1. Not so great, I didn't hunt the pig and Jack yelled at me to eat the meat in a bad way.

  2. Jack will turn out to be bad, and more violence will occur with Jack to other people.

Lord of the flies chapter 1

1. Describe the setting of the island.
It was a really weird island, no adults with supervision, really hard to describe.

2. What major event has brought you to this island?
I should say, it was from World War 2. I think we got shot down by some plane.

3. Introduce yourself and explain your relationship to the other characters (of interest) who have been introduced so far.
I am getting a long with most of the people so far in the island, such as a fat boy I met named Piggy. Though, I don't have a good feeling about this character named Jack, he might not be a good guy really.

4. Why are there no adults on this island?
I am not so sure why there are adults in this island, the pilot probably landed somewhere else and is probably dead by now.

5. What powers does a person holding the conch have? How do you feel about the conch?
The person holding the conch really has a lot of power, it can lead the people trapped out of there by a savior. It can attract attention from all nearby.

6. What is the choir’s job? How do you feel about the boys in the choir?
The choir's job really isn't much, Jack though wants to go hunting which is okay. I think letting some signal is better.

IF YOU’RE JACK ANSWER =

1. I should be elected as chief because I am the leader of the choir and the hunting group.

2. I couldn't kill the pig because I never really killed something before and is was scared there was going to be a lot of blood.
