Conch Shell


The conch symbolizes respect, civilization, and attentiveness. The conch is important because the kids are out of control without an adult or guardian. Ralph and Piggy use it to call the boys over. In other words, they use the conch to control the kids down. It is used in the beginning in the story when they crash and discover it in the beach.

I can't believe what happen last night with the vicious attack they did on Simon. I can't even talk about Simon's death. I wish I could've said something Jack's tribe. This is terrible. Why is Ralph saying that we were participants in the murder of Simon? I can't believe that half of the people on the island joined Jack's tribe after what happened last night. OMG!

I am going to get my glasses back tomorrow.
