Finding the conch shell was the most important event in this chapter. This is because the shell elected a leader and brought everyone together. The next most important event was finding the pig. It was important because it told the boys that there was now food. Also it was important that they found out that the land was an island.  2. We had several questions. One of them is what happened to the pilot? Also, Why were they leaving England?

3. 3. The title “The Sound of the Shell” is significant to chapter because it’s how the boys gathered together. Without the shell to blow like a trumpet, the other boys never would have heard them and gotten together.

4. 1. Ralph and Piggy started out as friends, but when Ralph met the others then became more separated. Piggy tries to hang out with the big boys, but they don’t let him. We think Ralph feels a little bad for him.

2. The only reason why he got elected was because he had the conch shell. With the conch shell he could call everyone and maybe get them rescued. The shell brought them to together at the platform.

3. All the boys are working together. They have elected leaders, and started hunting and exploring. Ralph is the elected leader. However, Jack is basically second in command because he’s the leader of the hunters. Another guy who is high up there is Simon.

4. We couldn’t really tell yet, but we think he’ll be a smart leader who knows what is good for the group. However, we already noticed that he’s being mean to Piggy. We think that he will start to be cocky and selfish.

5. The conch is significant because it is what Ralph used to bring all the boys together. Now they have a form of government because it can call them together where ever they are. Written by Jayana, Elizabeth, Mihaela, and Christian
