Lord of the flies : Free topic entry.

I really liked the story, mainly because of the relationship we can do between this and other well-known stories such as Peter Pan or The Chronicles of Narnia. The problem of the book is the complexity of their vocabulary and the extension of this, but not subtract points to its history.

Prediction & Reaction Chapter 2 - 5

Chapter 2 :

- I think that the group will have very deep problems because the tension between Ralph and Jack. This problem will generate irreversible consequences maybe as the death or dissaparance of one or more Child.

- For this imminent problems in the group relationships, Ralph will try to get a pacific solution, but Jack and his followers will not coperate with the development of the solutions.

Chapter 3  &  4 :

- At this instances, few trouble affect the children group, for this reasson i think that the main consequences will began to appear and gradually the group will began to separate and present the main conflicts.

- The group will divide in two main parts, one of this main group divisions will support Ralph, as his main first leader, and the other side will propose Jack as the new leader.

Chapter 5 :

At this instances, we will see the intention of Ralph to find a solution for all the problems, but this intention will not work because the little coperation of the rest of the group specially Jack.

This conversations will finally form fights between some characters, maybe Ralph, Jack and Piggy.

On the first chapter of the story appears the main characters, Ralph, a young boy with fair hair and piggy, a fat boy with glasses with breathing problems (asthma) and also problems on swiming.

Finally, all the group of children make a votation and decide that Ralph will be the leader of the group.

" Ralph, we can use this to call the others. Have a meeting. they´ll come when hear us" - Piggy to ralph about the conch they find on the beach.

"I was going to" said Jack. He was ahead of them and they could not see his face. Abaout Jack, on the boar episode.

c) Discussion questions :

- Will the children group survive on this island ? how? .

- Ralph will be a good leader ?

- Some of the boys will have problems with Ralph ?

d) Prediction :

I think that the group of boys will have a lot of problems in the island but they will be able to solve this because they will have a good development of strategies for survival.

I think that Ralph and Piggy will have a better relationship in the future, because they are the firs characters in the story and also the main characters.

Students Campaign.

Pablo Pinto B.
Secondary Chilean student.
February 2012.

Sillicon Valley, United States. A group of six students from the 5 continents started a project on 2011 for innovate on the global education. They advance 3 of the 7 steps that complete the objectives of the project like said Kim, the south-Korea Student:

" From November until today, we raise more than a half of the resources that we need for complete our project, so we can say that we reached 3 from the 7 mean objectives".

Students from Korea, Kenya, Australia, Chile, Canada and England started an educational project very similar to the International Bachilleaurate, Anthony, the english british student explain more about this relationships between IB and this new project:

"The main difference between the IB and our project is that our system is absolutely technologic".

Our organizers told us that this project have 7 main steps :

"The first step was to get sponsors, on the first months we got the 4 main sponsors that we need, after the sponsorship, we need to collect money and we collect more than a half of the neccesary resources like said Kim, the third step was to analize our international survey about the succes that this project could have on a soon future". Said Pedro, the chilean student.

The project have the aspiration of being complete at 2013, with more than 1 school per continent using this new international education project that have for main objective to create an global technologic education in the majority of the countries on the 5 continents.

Comparison :

Between the 1st day of school at the village and the 1st day of school in Barbados, we can compare a lot of diferences, for example, the expectations that have the majority of the children at the village school, that is to work at the fields or in the factory and the expectations of the children in Barbados, that is much better and varied, like for example to be a sanitary inspector, a "civil servant" or other alternatives that give the oportunjity and motivation to his students.Also is important that the Barbados school is quite bigger than the Village one, with more students and its possible that it is more stricter. 

Is important to know that both of the writers of this 1st impressions are youngs students from each schools, so there is a similarity between this 2 texts.

First Impressions

1.The first time i liked a girl.

The first time i liked a girl, i think that was amazing strange because i never think before that some day would have fillings like that.Also, on that momment i start to think about mix Mackay & St. Margaret and a lot of other ideas that i was ashamed to share with my classmates because there will think i was strange or gay because when we was young, St Margaret girls was like our main enemies. Some months later, i discover that a  lot of my friends have the same ideas and fillings and some time later, may be 1 or 2 years, we all have some girl friends or other relationships with other girls. 

2. My First Party. 

I was 13 years old, my friends go to parties for a couple of years ago, but i was an different case, because my parents try to "Protect" me more than other parents, For this reason, i think that night parties was the best thing on the planet, and when i got the posibility i was really excited, but in the party i got a little dissapointed, because this super parties was a little boring, my school classmates on a side, a group of girls in the other side shouting and laughing of things that no one can understand and finally a group of hungry friends eating candies, fried chips and drinking soda on a corner. 

3. My first day of school.

My first day on the playgroup of the mackay school, was a very cold day, i remember i arrive with my mother and my old brother that was on kinder 2 years above.My mother, have by second time the experience of leave a little children alone in that cold gray concrete cube, that in that times was on construction. Instantly after i arrive to the school i have my first problems, i was angry with my teacher because "she dosent love me" as my kinder garden teachers, so she told this to my mother and my mother told this to all his friends and all my family, very shamefull story.
