Lord Of The Flies Over all Feelings

I feel that Lord of The Flies was good. I found it more entertaining that To Kill A Mocking Bird. Although there were some areas in the book that were rather confusing but after I thought about them I understood. If i hadn't missed school it would of been better for the whole group. Megan did a outstanding job, if we hadn't had her the group would done horribly. Kirsten also did a good job with turning everything in on time. Honestly they would of done a better job without me in the group. -George Seketa-

Lord Of the Flies ending prediction

I predict that the children will be found by the adults in the middle of a battle between the two villages. The groups will probably be in to much shock to talk to the adults but will be clinging to them like glue. It will also probably end with it actually being a story from one of the few children that survived during the time on the island -George Seketa-

Chapter 11 summary and response

In chapter 11 Ralph realized that Jack's tribe stole Piggy's specs. The fire had burnt out. Which left them with nothing at all. The whole tribe went to Jack's cave. Then that is where Piggy ends up dying. Both Zero and Sam get captured. Ralph gets injured. This chapter played a big role in the book. So much bad stuff has happened. Simon and Piggy are dead, which leave ralph with nobody to turn to. Since Jack has captured Sam and Eric, they can't help Ralph out. Ralph feels very alone and gets worried about what is going to happen next. http://www.google.com/search? - kiersten Swinderman

Overall feelings of the book

I feel that the book was confusing. It was really hard for me to follow and keep up. But In the end it was a really good book and I enjoyed reading it. I like how there are many tragedies and bad events. It lead me to wonder who would survive and who would not get so lucky. Overall the group did pretty good. With George missing so much school it made it rough for him to get his work done on time. Megan did an amazing job. I feel Our group would have not gone far without her. Megan is a hard worker and gets her work done. I feel that I did and overall good job with my work and contributions to the group. I feel we could have worked harder. - Kiersten Swinderman

My Feelings One The Book

I feel that the book was a bit of a difficult read. It had many moments that were confusing. But, overall, I enjoyed the book. At times I didn't know how to react to the events that occurred. In a way, I think the tragedies and the events were good and bad. For example, when Piggy died, Ralph had less to worry about. At the same time, he had a larger chance of being killed. Overall, the group work went pretty well. With George missing several days of school, it made things a bit more difficult. Catching up on the work was tough. Kierstin did really well with turning things in on time. I feel that I did as well. The first blog post didn't go so well. Once we knew how to do it, things were back in order. We could've worked a little harder. - Megan King

Chapter 11, Summary and Response

In chapter 11, Ralph realized that Jack's tribe stole Piggy' s specs. They were left with nothing. The fire went out. Piggy decides he wants to go and get back his specs. Ralph doesn't think it's a good idea, at all. Later on, the whole tribe goes to Jack's cave where Piggy dies, Sam and zero get captured, and Ralph gets hurt. I feel that this chapter is the largest turning point in the book. With Simon and Piggy dead, Ralph had nobody. Sam and Eric still want to protect Ralph, but they can't because Jack has captured them. I think Ralph begins to feel a withdraw. He needs someone to vent to. If I were him, I would want to die. Being alone, is the worst part of all of it. - Megan King

Chapter 9 summary

In chapter 9 most off Ralph's tribe leaves for jacks tribe. Most of them gathered firewood for there fire. When all of a sudden everyone notecied Simon was missing. They figured he was out doing something. Ralph's tribe traveled to the land where Jacks tribe was for a big feast. They tried to call a meeting, but it ended badly. They started talking about Simons death and Jack and Ralph got in a fight over who's fault it was that the fire went out. I feel if the boys would have been more worried and mature about stuff, then Simon would still be alive. They were all to busy arguing nd fighting about stuff to realize what was going on. I believe that Jack has a really bad controlling problem. That is why most of the boys don't like him. - Kiersten Swinderman

Ending prediction

I predict the book to end by all the boys getting saved. I believe along the way of them getting rescued many of them will die. Simon is already dead so there are many chances some more boys could lose there life's. I think jack and piggy wwill end up dying. Jack is to controlling and has a really bad attitude towards everything and everyone. Possibly Ralph will become leader again. Since everyone was scared of jack things should go back to normal when everything first started. The boys will like not being beat all the time by jack. This is my ending prediction to the book Lord of The Flies. - Kiersten Swinderman
