To Kill a Mockingbird- Chapters 1-31 Guaranteed A+
What did Dill dare Jem to do? ✔️✔️He dared him to go up and touch thhe Radley house.
What was Scout's first "crime" in school? ✔️✔️Her "crime" was her abiltiy to read and write.
What was Calpurnia's fault? ✔️✔️Calpurnia taught Scout to write.This caused trouble for her at
school, and Miss Caroline asked her to tell her father to stop teaching her.
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 interference, Scout was in more trouble
with Miss Caroline. Scout blamed Walter for getting off on the wrong foot with Miss Caroline.
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 she should treat anyone who came to visit
her home as "company" and show him every courtesy.
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." The
Ewell children only come to school on the first day of school.
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, the children would be even worse off than
they are. Because the Ewell children's home life is so unusual, the authorities bent the rules for them.
Why did Jem cry? ✔️✔️Jem cried because he was shocked at the injustice of the jury, people from his
own town, whom he had always considered above such injustice.
, What was "round the back steps" when Calpurnia came in on Monday morning? ✔️✔️The black
community had left all kinds of food "round the back steps" for Atticus and his family as a gesture of
thanks for all he had done to defend Tom Robinson.
What was the significance of Maudie's two little cakes and one large one? ✔️✔️Maudie had two little
cakes for Scout and Dill, but Jem got a slice from the big cake. This was Maudie's symbolic way of saying
that she accepted Jem as a young man instead of a boy.
Describe Bob Ewell's meeting with Atticus at the post office. ✔️✔️Bob Ewell wanted to fight with
Atticus when they met at the post office. Atticus just said he was too old to fight, and he walked away.
Bob Ewell then threatened to get even with Atticus.
What is Atticus's reaction to Ewell's threats? ✔️✔️Atticus rationally understands that Bob Ewell is
upset, but he does not believe that Bob would actually do any physical harm to anyone.
Alexandra does not want Scout playing with Walter Cunningham. Why not? ✔️✔️Alexandra thinks the
Cunninghams are trash because they don't have the background of the Finches.
Jem said. "I think I'm beginning to understand why Boo Radley's stayed shut up in the house all this time
....it's because he wants to stay inside." Why does he say this? ✔️✔️The world is starting to look
complicated to Jem. The jury decision, all the talk about social class and the problem of what exactly
"background" means, and Mr. Raymond's false drinking problem are all weighing on his mind, and he's
trying to get things all sorted out with understandable definitions. He is learning that things in the real
world just aren't easy to sort out and understand.
Mrs. Merriweather of the missionary circle complains about her cooks and field hands. What does that
tell us about her? ✔️✔️As a member of the missionary circle, she is very concerned about the
personal welfare of many Africans, but in her own back yard, Mrs. Merriweather is as prejudiced as she
could be. She is a hypocrite.
What happened to Tom Robinson? ✔️✔️Tom was shot when he tries to escape from prison.
What more do we learn about Alexandra after Atticus and Calpurnia leave? ✔️✔️Alexandra seems
more well-rounded in this section. We see clearly for the first time that she loves and is concerned
about her brother. We see that she takes the news of Tom Robinson's death with difficulty, yet she
