Are their specific authoritative figures that are seen more powerful than others and does this power get abused?]]> 2018-03-22 18:44:56 UTC https://padlet.com/rtussey/LOTFD1R2/wish/245184263 Caroline Qatsha https://padlet.com/rtussey/LOTFD1R2/wish/245184720 Morge mentioned that peer pressure took a big toll on the boys in the book, especially when it came to killing.

He had not got the conch and thus spoke against the rules; but nobody minded." (Chapter 5)

Obviously the conch is not very important to the boys, but Jack broke the rules, do you think that if Ralph spoke to make himself heard against the rules anyone would mind?]]> 2018-03-22 18:46:49 UTC https://padlet.com/rtussey/LOTFD1R2/wish/245185315 Let's compare Simon and Ralph. Although Simon is no longer with us he was similar to Ralph in many ways. Ralph and Simon are/were both motivated towards goodness but throughout the novel, you can often see that Ralph is a follower and has a small amount of evil beneath him whereas Simon was always motivated and wanted peace.
