"What Would You Do?"

Alone on a deserted island in the middle of the ocean?

Imagine if you found yourself on the beach with the boys in the novel we just started. By some two years you would be the oldest person on the scene, and maybe your maturity and experience could serve well in establishing order and getting organized. So in this assignment let us imagine you are there with Ralph and the rest in the excitement of finding yourself on this beautiful island. What would you do first? If you were placed in charge because of your age, what would you do?

Please make a checklist and be ready to present it to the class next time we meet. You can brainstorm it, bullet it, or just write out a plain old paragraph describing your plan of attack. Please have a graphic somewhere in there.

Feel free to be creative! And please be ready to share your work with your teacher and peers the next time we meet!
