Lord of the Flies, Chapter One

Leader written in sand


Discussion IconNow that you have finished reading Chapter One, respond to the following question on the discussion board: Was Ralph a good choice for a leader?  Think about what you learned about his character and the other characters as you were reading Chapter One to make your decision.  If you agree, provide specific evidence from the text to support your agreement.  If you disagree, state who you think would make a better leader and why, citing specific evidence from the text. Post your responses to the discussions area. Then return to the topic several times over the next few days to read your coursemates’ posts. Reply to at least two of them, being sure to offer new insights, ask questions, and encourage further conversation.

Before you begin, access the Leader Discussion Rubric to make sure that you include all of the items required for full credit.
