The A team - by Ed Sheeran
Ralph has chosen this song as he loves it. It's a song he'd love to be able to play on guitar. Ralph has stated he loves to play his guitar. However he gets frustrated when he try's to play it on his own. He often has his guitar out when he is relaxing in the unit and has stated he wants to write a song about his mum. Ralph actually sung part of a song he had thought up. The lyrics were very warm towards his mum. However this song was very short and maybe if Ralph gets better at the guitar with these lessons he will be able to put a whole song together about his mum. This would be a very positive event as Ralph finds it very difficult to talk about his family at all.
I spoke with Ralph and asked him what music he liked so that I could tailor his lessons around his likes instead of boring things he doesn't know about.
We looked out music in the school library but eventually settled on Ralph's idea of looking up the music on Google.
To ensure Ralph learns the quickest and easiest way possible I found a guitar chords sheet and a Guitar Chord document (below) to help him understand the music better.
Arrangements
I spoke with my team leader and asked if this would be a good thing to take forward as Ralph has requested it. This was confirmed and she stated that not only would Ralph be learning and achieving but maybe as things develop staff will learn off of Ralph with regards to his opinions on family. My team leader also stated this would be an excellent morale boosting experience as staff will be sitting down with him for long periods, investing their energies and sourcing positive and constructive resources to help support and inspire him.

When and Where?
I arranged the key time lesson to take place at 6pm.
This gives plenty of time for Ralph to complete school, routines, have dinner then attend his lesson.

    Although Jack has a valid point in wanting to have fun because all of them are just kids, Ralph’s main things are more based on wanting to survive and wanting to be rescued. One could argue that Jack wanting to hunt all of the time helped them get the food to eat, but there was plenty of fruit for…

    One of Ralph’s various qualities that contribute to him being an honorable leader is responsibility. Towards the beginning of the book, Ralph was building huts “all day…with Simon. No one else” (50) to provide shelter for everyone.…

    Ralph takes on the role as the adult on the island as there is none. He constantly thinks of survival, having fire, and building shelter because he is concerned about everyone's safety, “Been working for days now. And look!” (50). He’s been working on the shelters with the other boys, but then soon tire and leave him with Simon to finish the shelter. He tries to make sure a fire is always burning, constantly thinking ahead for warmth, cooking food and the possibility of rescue. Jack is a problem, he is becoming more and more barbaric, never thinking things through or supporting others, selfish and unworthy for chief, “He isn’t a proper chief” (126). Ralph would like for everyone on the island to be in one tribe so they can all help each other using all of their strengths, some are better at building shelter, others are better at hunting. Jack does not agree and resists that idea, stealing their food and making their lives even more difficult. Jack is making Ralph’s life unbearable, but Ralph perseveres to be a leader on the…

    Ralphs leadership skills are what gets the boys support and motivates them towards a common goal. Shortly after all the children find each other Ralphs first instinct is that the island should choose a leader. The boys hold an election and because of Ralphs charisma and prestige they elect him. While the other boys are interested in playing and having fun on the island, Ralph is thinking about ways to stay alive and get rescued. Ralph displays his leadership skills through his speeches and presence in front of an audience; he holds a meeting in which he proposes a signal fire and creates a new goal for the island, which is to keep the smoke signal going: A fire! Make a fire, [the boys shouted]. At once half the boys were on their feet (38).…

    Ralph is assigned the leader of all the boys in the beginning so he had no real struggle. He told them what he thought was right, and they all obeyed until taunted by Jack. When Jack comes into the picture, everyone abandons Ralph and his plans to go eat with Jack. Ralph struggles to find allies and is annoyed at the fact that they boys just left him like that. Had the boys stood up to Jack and remained loyal to Ralph, Ralph would never have struggled. He needed that to bring out his driven personality. Ralph had many ideas that ended up failing him in the long run, but he still tried to convince the boys to come back with him. His strategy was that the fire was most important and that it would lead to rescue, ironically he was right except it was not his fire that got them rescued, it was Jack’s accidental fire that got them saved.…

    Ralph, a round character introduced in Lord of the Flies, seems to be the most likable and civilized boy on the island. Ralph’s natural willingness to lead becomes apparent early on when he blows the conch shell and gains the admiration of his peers: “there was a stillness about [him] as he sat that marked him out: there was his size, and attractive appearance; and most obscurely, yet most powerfully, there was the conch” (Golding 29). However, Ralph’s futile attempts to organize the boys, to build shelters and to keep the signal fire going breed frustration and make him lose his cool: “I was chief, and you were going to do what I said. You talk. But you can’t even build huts—then you go off hunting and let out the fire—” He turned away, silent for a moment. Then his voice came again on a peak of feeling. “There was a ship—” (Golding 99). Even after Ralph momentarily descends into savagery and takes part in Simon’s murder-- “That was Simon . . . That was murder” (Golding 224)--Ralph refuses to succumb…

    With the increase of time spent on the island, Ralph’s innocence begins to diminish. Ralph is no longer the helpless little child he once was when he first landed; Ralph has evolved from a benign child to a hostile hunter. After going hunting with the boys, Ralph tried to regain the group’s attention as they all focused on Jack’s’ wounded left arm. Ralph reminisced on how he hit the pig with his spear and then began to act as though Roger were the pig, jabbing at him while Roger rushed away. Soon, the group surrounded Robert, all participating in the jabbing: “Ralph too was fighting to get near, to get a handful of that brown, vulnerable flesh. The desire to squeeze and hurt was…

    I believe teaching individuals about singing, playing instruments, moving, composing and listening is incredibly important, ranging from infants through to adults, but starting in early childhood would be most beneficial for long term benefits. These key elements contribute significantly in developing their music skills and knowledge; contributing to their education on a more broad scale (Broad, 2007 pg23); and/or assisting the student’s emotional/mental development.…
