Lord Of The Flies; why does jack want to hunt?

I think that Jack is so compelled to hunt because he feels that because he failed the first time that the boys encountered a pig. Meanwhile the others don't want to bother with the difficult task of hunting when they could just eat the fruit off of the pasture of bushes they found. Jack thinks that he lost face or failed by not being able to kill the pig on the first day. He may also want to earn the respect of the others by catching food for the rest of the boys, as he lost the vote to be chief.

Lord Of The Flies, chapter 1-3 summary

Lord Of The Flies is about a group of boys that survive a plane crash onto a deserted tropical island. Soon after the crash they called all of the boys to a meeting where they were to elect a leader. They ended up electing Ralph, the protagonist of the book. Piggy, one of the surviving boys who is often made fun of by the rest of the boys, comes up with the idea to go to the central mountain on the island and build a fire. A few days after they build the fire to attract boats and planes, they realize that they are running low on food and need shelter. Meanwhile, Jack is compelled to go hunting after failing to catch the first pig they saw on the island and will not give up the task. Ralph, jack, and simon try to rally the rest of the boys to help build but eventually decide to take a break as they are the only ones working.

This is what I accomplished today:

• Complete 2 language arts lessons and 1 language arts extension lesson. All grades must be 80% or higher.
• Complete 2 independent math lessons. All grades must be 80% or higher.
• Show a facilitator your backpack when you complete this.
• Direct Instruction math:

I think that today I did good in completing my givens. I did get a little distracted during direct instruction math but other that that I think that I used my time very well. Tomorrow I will stay focused better than I did today.
