Piggy
Stupid Jack!
What things are you having trouble adjusting to on the island that are different from your life at home in England?
- Every thing is different; there isn’t one thing that’s the same, everyone is mean to me, I don’t have my auntie, my skin has gotten very impalpable, and i always need to use blam
.
How do you feel about the littluns?
- I think they are very immature, blatant, and annoying. They aren’t as belligerence as Jack though.
What do they do with their time?
- They never do anything productive with their time. They lay in the sand, build sand castles, and go swimming.
Why do you all paint your faces?
- I didn’t paint my face. Jack and his crew did so they can blend into the plants and tress to make it easier to hunt for the animals.
What does this foreshadow?
- I think that this foreshadows that we are going to be able to get a lot of meat.
How do you feel when your face is painted?
- I haven’t painted my face yet, but if I do I would feel powerful and sneaky.
Why doesn’t the passing ship see you on the island?
- The passing ship didn’t see us on the island because Jack wasn’t being responsible and let it go dead!
Why was the fire allowed to go out?
- The fire went dead because all Jack cared about was looking for the pig. He was in charge of keeping the fire going but he didn’t. Its all his fault we are still on this island.
What other crisis develops regarding the fire?
- Another crisis that happened was I got beat up buy jack and he broke my glasses.
What do you predict will happen next on this island?
- I think Jack is finally going to learn that is not all about him. He isn’t the leader! Ralph is.

Why isnt anyone helping around the island!?
Christina Schaefer
Blog Post # 3
Ralph
“why isn’t anyone helping around here?”
Why is it important/not important to have shelter for the little ones?
- I think it’s important to have shelter for everyone so we can be protected from all of the bugs, and most importantly the beastie.
What are the various jobs assigned to the boys?
-Jack is in charge of the choir which is also the hunters. Piggy is in charge of the rest of the little kids. Such as counting them making sure they are doing something productive, and knowing their names.
Why aren’t they carried out?
- The smaller boys just play and are still acting like small children when parents were still around
What do you feel is the most important task for survival? Explain.
- I think the most important task of survival is to just stay clam, not panic and to keep our hopes up high that someone will come and rescue us.
Describe Simon. (If you are Simon, describe yourself)
- Simon is extremely helpful. He is the only one who helped me today to bluild the huts. He is very tanned from being out in the sun all day with me, and skinny.
What do you think will happen on this island if you don’t get rescued soon?
- I have a feeling everyone will get very annoyed with each other. If Jack doesn’t get any meant soon we will all get sick from not getting the right nutrition we need. We might start dying.
Right now Jack and I are not getting along so well. He always thinks he’s the boss of everyone and acting like he’s the leader. I’m the leader not him! He is so rude to piggy and doesn’t do anything productive around the island.

Do you think this is a good island or a bad island?
-I think this a bad and good island; I think it’s good because everyone is so capering and positive, we have a great leader also. The reason I think its bad is because it’s going to get burnt down since the fire got so out of control. Also because everyone is so errant.
2. What is the beastie?
-Beastie is a snake like animal that everyone thinks is going to attack us. I don’t believe there’ a beastie, but if there is ill kill it.
3. What is your plan for being rescued?
-My plan for being rescued is to stay calm and just hope that someone knows were out here. There really isn’t much more we can do.
4. Do you want to be rescued?
-Of course I want to be rescued! I do not want to be on this island with piggy for the rest of my life and be martyred.
5. How did you start a fire and what happens to the fire?
-We started the fire by using Piggy’s glasses. It worked really well. The bad thing is that the fire keeps on getting bigger and bigger, we can’t even control it!
6. What happened to the little boy with a mark on his face?
-The little boy with the mark on his face ran away and got lost. We think he might get caught in the fire and die.
7. How are you different from all the other boys?
-I think that I’m different then all of the other boys because I’m way more officious then everyone and I tell the truth no matter how much it hurt. I also always want my way. Also because everyone is so ebullience, and I’m not.
8. As you go to bed each night, what is going through your head? Are you afraid, excited, indifferent…? What’s going on inside of your head?
-When I go to bed each night I’m just happy that I’m still alive. I am very scared deep inside of me but I can’t show it. Well get out of here soon.

- Hi my name is Christina Esparza Schaefer, and if i would have to explain my relationship with Jack i would say it would not be good! It wouldn't be good because in the book so far he sound like a really big jerk who wants to control, and be in charge of everything. I don't really like people who are very controlling.

6. What is the choir’s job? How do you feel about the boys in the choir?
- The choirs job is to be the hunters. I don't really like the boys in the choir because it seems like they are the followers of Jack.
1. Who do you want to be the leader on the island? Why?
- At the moment I'm very pleased with Ralph being the leader on the island. I'm happy because he has a lot of power since he is the owner of the conch. I'm also pleased because he is way nicer then Jack.
