I do think that their discussion flowed better than ours

# data[].attributes.body
Megan has a true point of being afraid but not about the vacation

# data[].attributes.body
Megan has a good idea about Jack, because he appears to be using fear to control them.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that they realized it wasn't a paradise when they all started crying about their homes and parents... @tyler @amanda

# data[].attributes.body
I agree, Amanda.

# data[].attributes.body
I didn't get the idea that they didn't want to be rescued. I had the impression that they were just too immature and unorganized to plan ahead and think of the future

# data[].attributes.body
I like what abby said that we have to keep in mind that they are only kids

# data[].attributes.body
Paige is contributing some very insightful information

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Robert

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Connor, the kids have lost their maturity and don't want to work to get off of the island. They've resigned themselves to eternity on the island and seem to only be there to have fun.

# data[].attributes.body
Abby is right, they are all from England and most of them probably haven't been to a place like this before

# data[].attributes.body
I think it would be good to hear others questions instead of just spencers

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree that the boys think that the island is a paradise. The tone of the book continues to be dark and all of the littluns seem miserable and scared to death

# data[].attributes.body
At least give spencer credit bc what he IS discussing is good, but he is also not doing well at the rest

# data[].attributes.body
I think Spencer should allow everyone else to get their questions in.

# data[].attributes.body
I dont like it

# data[].attributes.body
Spencer forcing the discussion so that he can say all of his questions

# data[].attributes.body
Spencer keeps changing ideas

# data[].attributes.body
I thought they should have finished the thought up first before changing topics.

# data[].attributes.body
i wish spencer would allow the group to spend more time on each topic instead of asking new questions

# data[].attributes.body
Connor is doing great <3

# data[].attributes.body
Okay, but, remember- seminars help us learn civil discourse. Consider asking to share the floor, when you're in a group with someone who seems to be dominating. "Timmy, is it cool if I share some of the discussion time? Ok, thanks, because I'd like to get back to Megan's last point."

# data[].attributes.body
Connor has a good idea, I think that the conch had lost all of its significance.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree Spencer seems as though he needs to lead the conversation.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like spencer is taking too much control and changing topics too quickly

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Becca. The boys fears are holding them back.

# data[].attributes.body
I like Conner's idea about the conch

# data[].attributes.body
Connor has a really good idea. But I believe that Ralph's would be smaller bc no-one besides maybe Piggy and Simon are with him

# data[].attributes.body
Just be careful about slipping into predictions, Abigail.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree, I think the seminar should be more conversational.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Connor. Jack and Ralph's fighting could foreshadow a split in the island.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with connor on how it is possible that they split into two powers with their own groups that they lead

# data[].attributes.body
that's what I thought too

# data[].attributes.body
I agree it seems like Spencer is dominating the conversation

# data[].attributes.body
Yeah

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Andrew and I believe that Ralph is losing hope because no one is listening to his leadership and nothing is getting done.

# data[].attributes.body
I like connor's theory of the split leaders but I have to disagree. So far Ralph has only two people behind him and I think that they would realize that going off into the jungle alone would be risky.

# data[].attributes.body
I think megan is right with saying the sinking of his feet is like the sinking of his power

# data[].attributes.body
I like what sage said, I didnt realize that but the water could symbolize the loss of civilization.

# data[].attributes.body
very good idea of spencer to start off the conversation with a page number

# data[].attributes.body
I like Spencer's enthusiasm, but I wish he hadn't moved right from his first question to his second. He's also kinda calling on the other kids and telling them their answers are "good." The balance of the discussion is off. We don't have leaders in seminar.

# data[].attributes.body
I still don't think that Jack has really made a change of himself, but rather the circumstances of the island are making changes on him and since the kids aren't in a comfortable situation he feels like he needs to change himself to make them more comfortable.

# data[].attributes.body
Seminar-worthy idea, Spencer.

# data[].attributes.body
Abigail has a good point

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Sage's interpretation of Jack's progression.

# data[].attributes.body
I think they keep bringing the boy up because he was the first sign that never everything was so great on this island and is now a reminder that any of them could die

# data[].attributes.body
To me savage is acting just like a wild animal, perhaps Jack will get there but for right now he isn't.

# data[].attributes.body
the point andrew brought up about the little boy being brought up again is intresting because it seems to have happened so long ago and the boys keep reacting like its still fresh

# data[].attributes.body
Yup, Connor. Now try reading the passage, too.

# data[].attributes.body
I think they can't even identify who they are now, are they Man, Savage, or Animal? I believe that they are blending as one in this chapter.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how Tyler referenced the page number so it's easier for everyone to understand what they're saying

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Adithy.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how Andrew brought up the kid who died and making them think deeper about why Golding did that

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Golding is trying to make a commentary on how the nature of man does not need an outside factor to degrade, but I think that the opposite is occurring where the lack of outside factors from the world outside of the island is driving some of the kids to lose their sanity and sense of morality.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Spencer Jack is consumed in making himself look tough.

# data[].attributes.body
Text reference, Tyler...boom.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Spencer

# data[].attributes.body
but could that motivation of peer pressure be whats making him savage spencer?

# data[].attributes.body
i meant good

# data[].attributes.body
good

# data[].attributes.body
I like how Andrew clarified what Elena was saying.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't necessarily think that Jack is becoming more savage, but I think he's just focussing more on hunting to impress and win over some of the younger boys.

# data[].attributes.body
Wait! Wait! Amanda said Ralph is doing something wrong, as evinced by the deterioration of the little society, but what is it's NOT Ralph, but rather then nature of man? What else might Golding be trying to tell us?

# data[].attributes.body
that was a goo tactic

# data[].attributes.body
I like how Amanda disagreed using a question.

# data[].attributes.body
Almost, Abby. But he gave up.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how Tyler went back in the book.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Jack has a huge ego and authority, so I think the littluns are scared of him, so that is why they are listening to him.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Tyler and Andrew are right, Jack is flashy because he hunts and is loud and intimidating, and that may not attract people but it makes them follow him even if it might be out of fear

# data[].attributes.body
He might be telling us that mans natural state is war and disagreement and that these kids are showing that to us

# data[].attributes.body
me too megan. I do feel Ralph is growing and become a better leader, but if anything he seems to be more selfconsouis since jack is in the picture as a rival leader

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with Spencer because you can see from earlier chapters where he is evidently becoming more animistic in the way he hunts and his mindset and he never seems to really relish in the other boys attention or ask for it.

# data[].attributes.body
I'd like them to reference exact text (page numbers, reading passages aloud, etc.).

# data[].attributes.body
The development of Ralph shows that he is a dynamic character and not as static as we saw him in the beginning of the book

# data[].attributes.body
Tambien, Connor

# data[].attributes.body
I liked their point about Ralph being self conscious about not being able to lead the boys

# data[].attributes.body
Maybe Ralph and Piggy should be more of a team rather than just one leader.

# data[].attributes.body
Ralp does seem to becoming a more dynamic charactor because he's no longer having just fun all the time but i taking responiblity as the leader of the island

# data[].attributes.body
I liked Tyler disagreeing with Aiden

# data[].attributes.body
Development of a character (Ralph)...does this indicate that Ralph is a dynamic (rather than static) character?

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with a split of power. The boys splitting but then later realizing they all need each other might foreshadow what is to come in the future.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Bobby is demonstrating some of the key characteristics of Ralph. He is accurately talking about Ralph's insecurities and how he's recognizing what he can do better. However, I don't agree that Ralph is becoming a worse leader, but instead he's tweaking what he's doing and therefor making an attempt to better the group.

# data[].attributes.body
Greetings^

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how Spencer started the Seminar off by referring back to the text to further his point.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Tyler.

# data[].attributes.body
Golding is saying that no single leader can be beneficial to everyone they are leading.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Ralph is starting to realize the can't handle the responsibilities of an adult, and he is desperate for advice.

# data[].attributes.body
Helo

# data[].attributes.body
I like how spencer immediately gives them a page to reference and topic

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Tyler, throughout the chapter Ralph continues to show that he has grown by showing him taking control and being conscious of rules and how important it is that rules are all they have left and being willing to step down as Amanda said

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with Spencer, because I think that all of the issues of irresponsibility in the shelters and water. The fire is just the culmination of all of their lack of action. Ralph called the meeting to address all of this. I liked the text reference, though.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how Aiden started the discussion off with a good deep question that could get the conversation off the ground

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with Spencer. He isn't passive aggressive he's just desperate to get rescued and feels like they are losing all hope
