Conch Shell


The conch shell symbolizes a way of civilization. If someone has it they can speak if they don’t they cant. This is important so the group is not out of hand and it is civil so they can get things done. The boys use it to talk and Ralph uses it to call meetings. It is used for talking without interruption and it is also used if there is an assembly needed so it happens at the time Ralph calls them.

Chapter 4

Today I was furious everything went wrong, so let me start off with that Jack is the one who is supposed to start the fire and make sure the fire stays lit. The hunters and Jack went out to go hunt that pig that he clearly can't stop till he kills it. So he went out to go hunting for it and it was the wrong day not to start the fire. Today a boat went by and sense the fire went out the could not see us. This got me very upset because this could be the only chance we could have went home.   So now you can image I'm am furriest at Jack because all he cares about is that dumb pig and it is more important to be rescued the n to kill the pig. Then later on him and his hunters come back covered in blood chanting this bizarre chant about them killing this pig. Then I told Jack what happened and he really didn’t seem to care and now I'm very mad that I always have to do everything. So then I took a walk and decided that I was going to call a meeting but in this meeting things a...

chapter 5

Today is the day I call the meeting. I was just walking across the beach and thinking about how I was not such a great leader that I thought I was. So the meeting today will be about me being not such a good leader and how we can get are group into line. So I will call the meeting later on in the day. Now it is time for me to call the meeting. So I'm blowing the conch shell. Everyone is here now. He goes my big speech. There is nobody working no one is getting water, no shelters are built, no one uses the bathroom area. This is getting out of line. There is also no monsters or beast on this island. A few of the littluns spoke up and said that they saw the beast themselves but I don’t believe it. Then Jack runs away and the rest of the boys ran after him. The only people that are left is piggy, Simon, and I. this is no good so Piggy told me to blow the conch shell but it was ignored. Then I had a plan we have to find the and restore civilization and leadership.

chapter 3

Today me and the boys will try to build some shelter but it will probably just end up being me and Simon. So that is what happened exactly so now I'm mad because nothing gets done around here. They think it's just a giant playground. So I think I'm going to have to call a meeting again. Ji called the meeting and the same thing happened they would work for five minutes and then stop working and then go off and play again. So now I'm going to have to do everything by myself like always. It just a normal day like always me doing all the work. So this was my day as usual I end up doing all the work but I got to come up with a plan so they will help two.
