At the end of chapter 4 Ralph told the boys, and I quote... "I'm calling an assembly." He then added, "With the conch. I'm calling a meeting even if we have to go on into the dark. Down on the platform. When I blow it. Now."
At the time Ralph thought that he was offering Jack the consolation of being put in charge of the former choir, which Jack then decided would become hunters. Later with the perspective of hindsight Ralph may well have regretted that decision.
In chapter three: Huts on the Beach Ralph and Simon are attempting to erect a third shelter but the two previous shelters must have been erected during the unrecorded elapsed time period which occured between the end of chapter 2 and the begining of chapter 3.
In Chapter 3, Ralph, Simon, and Jack were all suppose to help with building the huts, however Jack felt that hunting was more important.
He makes a stand against Jack and the choir boys because they had not acted upon their responsibility of keeping the fire going.
In the beginning of the novel, The Lord of the Flies, Ralph has a carefree attitude, and is excited by the idea of adventure. By chapter 5, he is more serious, and begins to feel the burden of the responsibility he has taken on.
