Introduction
Lord of the Flies is the final work we will study together this year. You may already know that it is a story about a group of boys that crash land on a deserted, tropical island. Before we begin reading, it is important for us to understand key concepts that are central to the book's theme. To that end, I am asking you to complete all parts of this exploration.
