Hello Book Club 502! This is Mrs. Witter from BOCES. What book are you reading now? I can't wait to talk about character symbolization when I find out what book you are reading.
I am currently reading "lord of the Flies". I picked the character Ralph. I think that he symbolizis the leader ship and also symboliszis how he can get controlded the kids as a leader.
I am currently reading "Lord of the Flies." One of the characters I chose for symbolization is Ralph, who is the leader of the group. He also rpresents the hunter for the prey which are the pigs.
This book i am reading is Lord of the Flies The character that I see to have the symbolism is Piggy. He represents sickness and lazyness because he would not help the other children with projects. He is an idealist but not a worker.
I was very confused and do not understand some of the wierd words in the book. For example "Them fruit" and "My aunty". It seems like there zoneing in an out with words like theses. Could someone explain.
Please comment on eachother's questions. You do not need to add anything to the character symbolizations, unless you really want to comment on them. Don't forget your names!
The book I am reading is "Lord of the Flies". The character I have picked is Ralph. I believe Ralph represents adventure and freedom. I believe this because Ralph wanted explore the island and was easy going and laid back.
I have just finished reading "Lord of the Flies"! The character I have chosen is Ralph. He is the main character, and I believe he has just the right personality to lead his peers. Ralph represents courage because he is clever and able to overcome any challenge. He is mentally strong.
A:I think that "them fruit" was a statement from a person who had a weak vocabulary. I think that they wanted to state thouse fruit or something in that guide lines.
A:In the middle of the ocean. Other than where like near mexico or comething like that then I would think they would near the tropics.Maybe Jamacia. Dont really know.
I chose 5:16 AM. On the first day on the deserted island, the teenagers get to know each other and the island. On the second day, the teens start to look for food and hope to find a ship to bring them home. They do find a pig trail. So they make a spear for hunting the pigs. On the third day, Ralph, the leader, attempts to try to kill the pig, but misses.
Do you think that "the flies" will take some of Piggy's advice on how to survive? Or will they wait for a disaster to strike before they listen to him?
I think that Ralph makes a good leader. He does whatever he can to makes sure things get done and making sure that "the flies" have food and shelter always. I think he takes things very seriously, but is fair.
Thanks David and Jillian for your vocabulary words. I am looking forward to showing you some ways to help you understand and remember these words. Mrs. Witter
