Chapter+4-Painted+Faces+and+Long+Hair


 * 1. Explain the significance of this chapter's title. In what ways do the events in the chapter connect with the boys losing their connection to civilization and society while moving more towards a primitive savagery? **
 * This chapters title is significant because Jack and all of the other boys are starting to turn more into savage like people. Due to the fact that they are losing their connection with civilization and society structure like before. They all have been growing out their hair and painting tribal like symbols and things on their faces, which makes them look more like tribal people and savages. **
 * 2. In this chapter, we are introduced to some of the other older boys: Roger and Maurice. As they hurry to go swimming, they kick over some of the littluns' sandcastles and then Maurice hurries away. Compare that to Roger later throwing stones around one of the littluns, Henry, but never actually hitting him. Why does Maurice hurry away? And why does Roger aim for Henry but does not actually hit him? **
 * They know that they aren’t supposed to do anything to the kids but now that there are no parents around they are starting to be more rebellious. **
 * 3. Jack is slipping into native hunter mode more and more deeply. As a result he camouflages his face with "paint". What effect did the "mask" have on the wearer? The mask had an odd effect on the wear, due to the fact that it makes them feel more masculine maybe. Or it makes them feel more like a tribal member or savage. We think that the marks wearer also gets a sense of duty and pride to kill meat for the rest of the boys. **
 * 4. What evidence in the text shows you that Piggy is being seen as an outcast more? **
 * When they get the pig, they don’t let him have any. Also they always leave him behind and don’t include him in anything. **
 * 5. Do you think that Jack is being sincere with his apology or do you believe that it is a "verbal trick" as Ralph thinks. Why? **
 * We think that he is not being sincere because he says it very breifly just because everyone is watching. It just seems like he want everyone to respect him. **
