Halloween Night To Kill A Mockingbird Research Paper

Jem’s relationship with Scout changes as he matures in the story. He goes from a fellow conspirator and playmate for his sister to her protector, resembling Atticus more and more with every chapter. In chapter 4, they are playing a game enacting what they perceive Boo Radley to be like. Atticus interrupts the game and inquires whether the game was about the Radley’s or not. Jem lies, saying no in response. In page 40, Scout yells in confusion and Jem remarks, “Shut up! He’s gone in the living room; he can hear us in there.” This shows his mischievous behaviour and the fact that he is still

Next, Scout and Jem learn how to have empathy for those who are misunderstood. Scout and Jem learn this through experiences with Boo Radley. Everyone in Macomb makes Boo out to be a mysterious and extremely dangerous, animal-like individual. The kids hear new rumors daily about Boo, and they begin to get curious. Scout, Jem and Dill all try to spy on Boo. They are determined to get him to come out of his house so that they can see the monster that everyone claims he is. Atticus soon catches on to what the kids are doing. He tells the kids that they need to leave Boo alone. What they hear about Boo

Veering sharply to the right, a large flock of birds neatly avoids a high wall.

In this eye opening book, one young girl realizes how evil the world can be. Brother and sister, Jem and Scout Finch, explore and try to comprehend more and more about the world they live in, even if it means losing the one thing that is suppose to keep them safe from the evils of the world, innocence. In the novel To Kill A Mocking Bird, Harper Lee portrays a young girl named Scout Finch as observant, strong willed, and intelligent.

"How could they do it, how could they?"Jem questions how the court found tom guilty when atticus had bob red handed and filled with evidence against him.therefore Jem has changed more into a mature person. although Jem matured , scout had her own time to change as a person. one of the moments when scout showed that she had matured was when she saw Boo for the first time. She wasn't scared of him and greeted him “Hey, Boo,” I said.(274). She has matured like jem. Scout has gone from a little kid afraid of passing by a house to walking home the man everyone in town is afraid

At the beginning Scout thought Boo Radley was a scary old man who is chained up in his basement and eat squirrels. They heard stories like he was cutting a newspaper and ended up stabbing his father in the leg. Since then their friend Dill has been working with them to retrieve Boo from his home. Jem and Scout have been getting gifts from Boo in an oak tree knothole and they think that’s his way of communicating with them. But when Mr. Radley filled the hole with cement the children experienced another time with Boo when Mrs. Maudie's house was on fire and out of the blue Scout had a blanket around her that wasn’t there. Towards the end of the chapter, Jem and Scout found themselves in a hassle after walking home from the pageant. Jem got broke

This was after Jem, Scout, and Dill had escaped with their lives from the Radley yard. Jem had just been through a traumatizing experience so he was silent.

Firstly, Scout realizes that things are not always as they seem. For instance, Boo Radley is seen as an evil monster, but as the story advances, Scout soon realizes Boo is not an evil monster, as he is the one who is giving them gifts and protects them from Bob Ewell’s violence. Jem warns Scout about “Boo was

Jem was going to touch the house and run, when Boo came out, then Dill and Scout were going to jump on him and hold him down.

Harper Lee's reaction to the success of "To Kill a Mockingbird" was a strange one. She said she didn't expect it to be such a success. She was hoping someone would like it, and give her a chance. In 1957, Lee met with editor Tay Hohoff in a meeting to discuss her novel. They were in New York at the time. Nelle was an airline reservation agent for 8 years to support herself while writing the manuscript "Atticus." It was about a girl named Scout Finch and her father Atticus Finch, who was a lawyer. Atticus was given a case to represent a black male accused of rape. This was during the 1930's, when racism and segregation was very alive. It shows us what the blacks had to endure while living in the south. The book has a strong meaning about racism and stereotyping.

4. Scout and Jem start to notice a pattern when they go to Mrs. Dubose’s house. She would talk to Jem about her favorite subjects, and about their father. Mrs. Dubose would open and close her mouth but wouldn’t reply to Jem. Jessie would make the kids leave when the alarm clock would go off.

Scout was so surprised and didn’t know what to do and she just stared at him. She walked him home and on her way back, she notices how her street looked from Mr. Radley’s point of view.

Scout and Jem walk to the fair and pagaent. Scout’s friends scares them. Scout fell asleep in her costume. She missed her part and ran out on stage and was embarresed the reast of the night. She was dressed as a ham.

Also, because he is always in his house his body is not very physically fit so to save Scout and Jem and kill Bob Ewell must have been very tiring. He demonstrates great self-sacrifice, bravery, and courage. Scout witnessed Heck Tate’s decision to lie, and say that Bob Ewell fell on his knife rather then tell everyone that Boo killed him. She did not fully understand it at the time, but the as the narrator is older Scout, she understands it eventually. After that, she walks Boo home. Scout stands on his porch and is able to see the neighborhood from his perspective, climbing into his skin and walking around in it, as Atticus said. She is able to see a piece of his life, and her being able to do this at 6 years old is extraordinary, and shows how much she has grown up.

For my paper, I have chosen to analyze the movie “To Kill a Mockingbird.” This movie is based on the novel – by the same name – written by Harper Lee. The story has two major plotlines. One follows Jem, Scout, and Dill as they try to uncover the secrets behind the infamous “Boo” Radley. It’s only at the end of the movie that we learn “Boo’s” real name to be Arthur, and that we discover he actually tries to protect people, as he saved Jem and Scout’s lives. The other major plotline, and the one most relevant to this class, follows Atticus Finch, Jem and Scout’s father, as he tries to represent Tom Robinson. Mr. Robinson is an African American man who has been charged with raping Mayella Ewell. The movie then
