The conch shell is a way of civilization. It is a shell that the kids found in the water and they use it to call assembles and they use it for talking. The only way you can talk at a assembly is by using the conch shell. The only person that can interrupt is ralph. The conch shell is a smart thing to use. Therefore there is no quarrels at the assembles because it shows a way of civilization.
The glasses. These glasses are used to start the fires on the mountain. The glasses are used for people to be able to see. Piggy is the one who uses the glasses to see. The person who starts the fire with theses glasses is Jack. They symbolize the fire and they also symbolize vision.

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.

D day Journal

William is probably effected by this day cause it was such a tragedy. He was effected by this because it was a live or die situation and it probably was scary. He probably questions the goodness of man because it was man vs man war and if man was good there would be no war and killing other man. Man is born with goodness it is a taught behavior when you become a barbaric person   when your born you don't want to kill people but it can be   taught by your surroundings of the people around you. So these are the reason why I think this man question mankind and also how there are barbaric people and how they came to be.

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.
