In Sr Jacksons class, we had a discussion or arguably, a debate on topics concerning the novel "Lord of the Flies". We were divided among groups and took turns stating our standpoints within a circle of desks. I found it to be a very interesting approach to discussing the book and look forward to them in the future.
The topics at hand were whether or not Jack Merridew was an effective leader and if the children were evil before or after they landed on the island. My group believed that Jack wasn't a good leader however, that didn't mean he wasn't effective. He established his power with an iron fist unlike Ralph. We also believed that the island made the children evil as the hunters began to hunt with lust. Overall, it was a fun experience to hear all the different viewpoints of my peers. Until next time broskis!
