#8 Chapter 4 Painted Faces and Long Hair

In this chapter what I can say is all about Jack.....what was he doing??? Out of the fire?? It was his job to make a fire to get the attention of the ship!! I'm so mad that he wasn't listening about Ralph's instruction and all he did in this chapter was to get a pig.... As you can see in the tile of this chapter, Jack did paint his face with 3 reddish stripe. He caught a pig afterward, so I don't think his idea is not good for the hunting, but to keep everyone together I think this paint made everyone separated in 2 teams..like Ralph's team and Jack's team which has a paint on their face.

#7 Chapter 3 Huts on the Beach

I can see that they are changing from the beginning of the book. They worked together when they got up on the island, but now Ralph and Simon were the only two who are still working to construct the shelters after working for a few days. Jack and his hunters were in the forest to hunt an animals and it didn't seems like they were all equals and together. I was surprised how Jack reacted when Ralph complains to Jack about the best thing they can do is get their selves rescued, because he was thinking what "rescue" means for a moment. I thought they are all waiting just to be rescued by somebody and that's why they're trying to survive until it happen but Jack didn't even think about how to be rescued, or who might be coming to pick them up. His idea is to catch a pig and that's all. Nothing else. I'm so nervous because he might stay there even though someone is trying to let them out from that island.

#6 Chapter 2 Fire on the Mountain

Everybody, especially Jack, is making fun of Piggy. It seems Jack and his hunters were not giving any respect to Piggy. I feel very sorry for Piggy because his opinions were right and they don't listen to his ideas at all. But one thing I like in this chapter is that Jack had the idea of using Piggy's glasses to light the fire when there were no matches. Before it happened, he couldn't get into the group because of his name, and appearance and so on but after this, his specs gives him a responsibility to light the fire. The book didn't mention, but I think this idea pulled Piggy into the group. Lord of the Flies Movie also has this specs scene so I really enjoyed to read the same part of the movie in the book too.

#5 Why "do good"

I do good because I feel comfortable when I'm doing something good. Many people are doing good to pretend themselves. If we see them doing good such as picking up the garbage, or helping old woman we think he/she is a nice person and he/she can be popular at school. Doing good is the one of the way to make itself looking good. Sometimes I'm acting very nice in the subject that I'm not good at and I think I was trying to make me feel relax by covering all the good work I've done in that class on my weaks. (my weak=can't do that subject)

#4 Bullying

I think the bullying caused by a lot of reasons such as "Jealousy". The bully might be jealous because some other girl might be more pretty or popular at school. Revenge is also in one of the cause of bullying. Maybe the victims who had been bullied become another bullies to do same thing what their bullies did to them. Another possible reason is to impress someone or want to be the center of the group or the class. All the humans have their own feeling, and impression so if someone break into it, it can't be helped.


Male bullies tend to be more physical than females. The victim may have a physical marks such as bruising or ripped clothing. Female bullies are feeling more guilty than male to use physical bullying. They tend to prefer more emotional for example, when they're working in a group they may strategize and plan to not to let her in their conversation or their work. Spreading gossip is also a common way to bully mentally.

#3

I already watched this movie version when I was in Civics class, so I know what is going to happen after this. At the beginning of the book, I couldn't understand what was happening at there because it didn't explain about the very beginning of the story. Ralph and Piggy and other boys were talking about the atomic bomb in some part, so I think the atomic bomb attacked their place and they were trying to run away from there by airplane but they crashed on this island caused by some wether conditon..such as storm, or thunder...etc. What I thought after I read the first part of this book is that "They are strong". I imagined what I might going to do if I straded in island. Maybe I'm going to cry like a baby because I don't know what to do, and there is no doubt to be rescued, or even survived.

Memorable event from Grade9 English class #1 #2

#1.I read the book called "Word Nerd"
#2.I chose this because this project was the only one I received the mark 100%. I'm Grade11 right now, so I have to take Grade11 English course as well, but I was taking ESL in the first year which I was in Grade9 so last year was my very first class I took an academic English course in highschool.
I failed every test during English class because of my English skills... but one day, I received 40 out of 40 in one project. This is very memorable event from last year English class, I will never forget. ^^
