Chapter+6

1. What “sign” is sent down from the “world of grownups” in the beginning of the chapter? What is the message that the sign gives them? They need to be better behaved, have a more organized society. -Alexa

2. Why do you think that Ralph did not blow the conch for an assembly after Samneric give him the news about the beast? If Ralph blew the Conch and no one came then he would loose all power, and no one would respect him anymore. -alexa

3. Why is Ralph so angry about the boys rolling rocks? Do you believe that his anger is justified? Why? They are starting to get off task again and joke around, they are also not listening to him. I think that he needs to keep reminding them what their goal is, but if he is too harsh then they won't like him. -alexa

4. Do you believe that Ralph has changed at all from the beginning of the book? In what ways? I think he has, he has been more stressed out then he was at the beginning plus he is losing everyones respect and attention. -alexa
