Reflection of the Trial (Lord of the Flies)

My strengths in this project, was that I could think of a good answer for the cross examination. I had a big challenge on just concentrating on the project and not getting side-tracked.


To prepare for this trial, i worked with the prosecutors to think of good questions and answers to make Jack guilty of manslaughter. For example, Michael asked what condition Simon and Piggy was. So i answered it as many deep cuts, and bruises. And that to do that much damage to a body, you need a handful of people.


For my challenges, I said that i couldn't concentrate. If you watched the trial, I did answer questions well, however when it was a cross examination...I did poorly on some questions. When Hunter(defense)asked me what medical school i graduated from, i was froze, and said a stupid answer. The reason why I froze, was because I fully did NOT create my character(medical examiner). If i did what I what i should have done , and concentrated on finishing my character biography, i wouldnt have froze up there and made it believe that I wasnt a very good medical examiner.


I think that i should get around a B-A, because though i did some parts poorly. I did do what i had to do. I came somewhat prepared, and I knew what I was supose to say.
