Chapter 1-3

1.

• Atticus Finch- Atticus is Scouts father and is one of the most well known people in Maycomp. He is a lawyer and in the first years of practice studied Economics. He also supported and helped get his brother through Medical school. He was born in Maycomp and was related to almost every one in Maycomp.

• Jean Louise Finch- The narrator of the novel. She is six years old when the story starts. Her mother died when she was about 2 years old at the time

• Jem Finch- His full name is Jeremy and he is four years older than his sister Scout.

• Calpurnia- This was the family cook who is described as all bones, nearsighted squinted and had hands were as wide as a bed. She had been with the family from the time Jem was born.

• Charles Baker (Dill) Harris-Is an almost seven year old who is proud he can read. He is wisely mistaken for a four and half year old. Dill was from Mississippi and would be spending summers with his Aunt Rachel. Dill’s mother worked for a photographer in Mississippi and he was once entered for a beauty competition which he won five dollars. Later Dill revels that he has no father.

• The Radley Place- Was a place where someone called Boo Radley lived. It was around the corner from Scouts house. It was a low house with a deep front porch and green shutters and had darkened to the dark gray yard around it. Their shutters were closed on Sunday.

• Stephanie Crawford-Is the neighbor hood scolder who is ready to talk about anyone and anywhere. She says she knows everything.

• Arthur “Boo” Radley-Is the Radley son that never comes out. He was once found in the wrong crowd of friends and was sent to industrial school. After he came back he was not allowed outside because his father did not want him making trouble.

• Miss Caroline Fisher-Is Scouts teacher who is from North Alabama she is a young 20 year old with bright auburn hair, pink cheeks with pink crimson nail polish.

• Walter Cunningham- Is a young boy in Scouts class. He has hookworms because he walks with bear feet. He is portrayed as being poor he had no shoes on the first day of school, but wore a clean shirt and mended overalls. The Cunningham’s never took anything from people.

• Burris Ewell- He is also in Scouts class and has cootie in his hair. He does not know how to spell his own name, because the cootie, Miss Caroline sends him home with a remedy to wash his hair with kerosene. He leaves and tells the teacher he is not coming back.



2. Dill dared Jim to make Arthur come out of the house because most people are afraid to even knock on the door.



3. Scouts first crime was showing that she was literate and she could read and her telling the teacher about what goes on in the town.



4. Calpurnia had taught Scout how to write in cursive when she was only in the first grade, all she was supposed to be able to do was print.



5. Scout rubbed Cunningham’s face in the dirt because he got her in trouble.



6. When Scout said “ He ain’t company, Cal, he’s just a Cunningham.” She meant that he was not a guest and that Walter was nobody. Calpurnia’s response was to tell Scout to shut up and to respect anyone who came in the house regardless of who comes to the home they are company.



7. The first mistake she made was that she offered Walter money for lunch; this was bad because Walter and his family did not take anything from other people. The second mistake she made was to send Burris home to wash his hair with lye soap and rub it with kerosene.



8. The Ewell’s did not have to go to school because they were very poor and could not afford to loose any work time by going to school; the father did not care if they went or not as long as they worked in the fields. And the whole family broke rules.

1. Identify Atticus Finch, Jean Louise (Scout) Finch, Jem Finch, Maycomb, Calpurnia,

Radley, Miss Caroline Fisher, Walter Cunningham, and Burris Ewell.

3. What was...

Answer 4

There is, literally, no mockingbird in To Kill A Mockingbird. There is, though, a figurative mockingbird. More than one, actually. When Jem and Scout get guns for Christmas from their Uncle Jack, Atticus tells Scout never to kill a mockingbird because it is a sin. Miss Maudie Atkinson explains this to Scout, saying that it is a sin to kill a mockingbird because mockingbirds don't do any harm to anybody, they just make beautiful music, and it is wrong to kill that innocence. The Mockingbird symbolizes innocence. The figurative mockingbirds in To Kill A Mockingbird are Tom Robinson because he was a black man accused of raping a white woman named Mayella Ewell, but he was innocent and never did such a thing, and was shot and killed because of it. Another figurative mockingbird is Atticus Finch, because he gets ridiculed and taunted and shunned by the citizens of Maycomb because he is defending Tom Robinson in court, and during this time period in the book, black citizens were segregated against and all white people were considered better than black people. The last figurative mockingbird was Boo Radley, who is considered scary and dangerous but really he is a very kind person, who is just very shy. There are rumours about Boo Radley that are untrue. In short, one of the main themes in To Kill A Mockingbird is suffering innocence, which is what the title is referring to using the symbolism of the mockingbird as innocence, and death as suffering.

Chapters 1-3



1. Identify Atticus Finch, Jean Louise (Scout) Finch, Jem Finch, Maycomb, Calpurnia, Charles Baker (Dill) Harris, The Radley Place, Stephanie Crawford, Arthur (Boo) Radley, Miss Caroline Fisher, Walter Cunningham, and Burris Ewell. Atticus Finch is a lawyer and Scout and Jem's father. Scout is the narrator of the story. Jem is Scout's older brother. Maycomb is the name of the town (and also the county) where the story takes place. Calpurnia is the Finch family's cook, maid and nanny. Dill is Miss Rachael's nephew, a young boy who visits his aunt and plays with Scout and Jem in the summertime. The Radley Place is the home of the Radley family across the street from Scout's house; it is a curiosity to the children because the Radleys are so different from other folks they know. Stephanie Crawford is a gossipy neighbor who knows everybody's business and everyone's family history. Boo Radley is a mystery to the children; he never leaves his house. Miss Caroline Fisher is Scout's first grade teacher. Walter Cunningham is a student in Scout's class, one of The Cunninghams. Burris Ewell is also a student in Scout's class; he is one of The Ewells.



2. What did Dill dare Jem to do?

Dill dared Jem to run up and touch the Radley house.



3. What was Scout's first "crime" at school?

Scout's first crime was that she could already read.



4. What was Calpurnia's fault?

Scout said it was Calpurnia's fault that she could write. This also caused trouble for her at school. Miss Caroline asked Scout to tell her father to stop teaching her.



5. Why did Scout rub Walter Cunningham's nose in the dirt?

Scout stood up for Walter in class and tried to explain the Cunningham ways to Miss Caroline. For her explanations, Scout got in more trouble with Miss Caroline, so she took out her revenge on Walter.



6. Scout said, " He ain't company, Cal, he's just a Cunningham." What did she mean by that and what was Cal's answer?

Scout meant that Finches were better than Cunninghams, and for that reason she didn't have to treat Walter as company. Calpurnia told Scout that she should treat anyone who came to visit her home as "company" and show him every courtesy.



7. What two mistakes did Miss Caroline make on the first day of school?

Miss Caroline's first mistake was to offer Walter Cunningham money; the Cunninghams don't take anything they can't pay back. Her second mistake was trying to tell Burris Ewell to go home and wash out his "cooties."



8. Why didn't the Ewells have to go to school?

If the truant officer enforced the laws for the Ewells, Mr. Ewell would probably be jailed. Without their father, wretched as he was, the children would be worse off than if they simply did not go to school. Because the Ewell children's home life was so unusual, the authorities bent the rules for them.



Chapters 4-7



1. What did Scout and Jem find in the Radleys' tree?

They found gum and two Indian head pennies.



2. Identify Mrs. Dubose.

Mrs. Dubose is an old lady who lives down the street. She berates the children as they walk past her house.

Jem, Dill and Scout reenacted the few facts and many peculiar stories they had heard about the Radleys.



5. Identify Miss Maudie.

Miss Maudie is another neighbor, about the age of Atticus. She is open-minded and enjoys the children's company.



6. What does Miss Maudie think of the Radleys?

She thinks they have a right to do whatever they want to do as long as they are not bothering anyone else, and she believes they have a right to their privacy.



7. Why do Dill and Jem want to give Boo Radley a note? What does Atticus say when he finds out about their plan?

They want to invite him out to play with them; they think he might enjoy that. Atticus tells the boys to leave Arthur Radley alone, that if he wanted to be outside, he would. Atticus also tells them that the proper way to extend the invitation would be at the Radley front door instead of putting a note on a fishing pole and sticking that through the window.



8. How did Jem lose his pants? What did he find when he went back for them?

Jem, Scout and Dill went to look into the Radley house. When they were discovered, they ran. Jem got caught on the fence, and in an effort to free himself, he took off his pants and left them on the fence. When he went back for them, they were mended and folded, sitting on the fence.



9. What else did Jem and Scout find in the Radleys' tree?

They found a ball of twine, two figures (resembling themselves) carved from soap, and a broken watch.

Mr. Nathan Radley cemented the hole closed.
