journal 1

Journal #1



Jack: Jack is a nasty, rude kid who gets mad if anyone thinks very little of him. Jack doesn’t follow any of the rules that Ralph gives to everyone else. Jack feels that his is above the rules and should be the leader.
Jack goes trudging through the forest with his “choir” to the sound that called him. He comes to a clearing and see’s that there is a whole congregation there waiting for someone to speak up. Jack goes towards the person with the shell like horn ready to take demand over them.
Jack explains to everyone who he is and that he is head boy of the choir. Soon they start to talk about having a leader for this small group of boys. They start to nominate three boys Jack, Ralph, Piggy. Only the boys in the choir vote for Jack, everyone else votes for Ralph, no one votes for piggy.

You really described the character well, but I wish you would have told about the story as if you were Jack. However, by reading this I was able to really understand the kind of person Jack was, and that could be very hard, given he has such a superior role.

You did very well describing what jack did throughout chapter one and how he was acting. But I think you really should have done some inferences in yours and write from Jack's point of view and maybe infere a few things that happened instead of just getting it directly from the book but shortened.
