Everybody thought that Boo Radley Radley was weird and gross. Everybody but Scout after Boo radley put a blanket around Scout while they were out during the winter in Maycomb. “As we drank our cocoa I noticed Atticus looking at me, first with curiosity, then with sternness. ’I thought I told you and Jem to stay put’ he said. ‘Why we did. We stayed-’ He said. ‘Then whose blanket is that?’ ‘Blanket?’ ‘Yes ma’am,blanket. It isn't ours.’ I looked down and found myself clutching a brown woolen blanket I was wearing around my shoulders.”(LEE 95). They soon realized that everybody else
14. In the courthouse, the colored section ran along the entire three walls of the courthouse, the jury sat to the left, under the long windows, the circuit solicitor and Atticus sat at the tables with the backs faced towards the children. The railing separated the spectators and the witnesses in the court; the witnesses sit with their backs toward Scout and Jem in cowhide bottom chairs, and Judge Taylor sat on the bench. It is significant where Scout and Jem sit because sitting in the colored section allowed them to see everything that was going on and it made them see the trail from a colored person’s perspective, where both races should be treated equally. By seeing the trial from a colored person’s perspective, they recall that life is
TKM Extra Credit 1. To Kill a Mockingbird setting is the 1930’s. The story provides a lot of textual evidence to support the main idea. I feel the main idea is segregation between Whites and Blacks. Racial segregation is alluded to, which can provide.
The twin Moons Glowed red this night, rain pored down in crimson hues, denotements of a deplorable omen on this planet. A single Mandalorian scout was running from a pack of shistavanen as they were stalking about the wet lands laughing, "Run…” growled one of the wolf like men. “Run all you optate meat, we can do this all night." Yelled another, “scum, they verbalize.” Raising his left hand up to his helmet “scum… me” he tapped several buttons into a transceiver built in the armor piece.

1. If I had lived in Maycomb, Alabama in 1934, I would have begun to grow stultified with life. It appeared as if nothing new ever happened in Maycomb County, so, consequently, nothing different would happen in my life. As a result of nothing happening in my life, I would grow increasingly bored with everything.
After Jem 's arm healed, things around Maycomb started to settle down again. Although there was some talk about Bob Ewell 's death, it quickly died down, just like the talk of Tom Robinson dying. But there was one thing that would never change. It was a Saturday afternoon, in mid-summer.
6/24, Chapter One: As the book begins, the readers are introduced to Scout, and her knowledge of Maycomb. I noticed how Scout’s narration sounded; she is telling the story as an adult but from a five year old’s point of view during the book, but her narrative included complex words such as “imprudent” (5) and “domiciled” (10), which is unlike what a child would say. Harper Lee uses the unique narration so that Scout would be able to provide background and context to Maycomb, but also so that readers would be able to see how Scout reacted and felt about the events in the book, and how it impacted her life growing up. Scout also used description and imagery as she told the story, which I found intriguing, since children don’t usually care for description and see things simplistically.
Jem’s lips moved, but his, “Yes sir,” was inaudible” (Lee 116). This illustrates Atticus’ true respectful gentleman personality as even despite what was said about him he refused to disrespect his elders and even tries to show Jem that by telling him to go talk to her, this also doubles to show the type of father figure Atticus

In the book, “To Kill a Mockingbird,” by Harper Lee, the author writes about what happens in the small southern town of Maycomb, in Alabama.
