If I had one word to say about the
activity on Thursday it would be noisy. Everyone's ideas were all said at one
time. When a leader was assigned, nothing was really enforced. Nobody’s ideas
made since with others and everything was jumbled. After I overhead someone say
it was the Lord of the Flies introduction, I was confused.
At
first, I tried to see how it connected to the book. Which since I wasn't at
school on Friday, because I was sick and haven't started the book. Also since
we have 15 or so first graders along with us was difficult to deal with. Maddie
suggested taken care of the kids, which was a good idea. Many others were
talking about stealing people's stuff or leaving the group for survival. Nina
even suggested cannibalism, which is seriously scary. Overall, it would be a
difficult task to accomplish organizing a system and surviving with
nothing.
I
think things would be a lot different in real life, because we would actually
have to make life or death decisions. Everyone would be willing to listen
to one another and cannibalism would hopefully not be even kinda an idea. Our
class as a whole has smart people, and I think people who aren't so book
smart would branch off and show their "street smart" abilities.
The imagination and creative our class has is great and could be very useful.
We have babysitters and hunters in our class as well, which is helpful.
Disagreements would also be present. With the whole class and the 15 first
graders, a disagreement is bound to come about. If we were truly put
to the test I think everyone would come together and be a lot different than in
class on Thursday.
