  2. So far in to kill a mockingbird everyone in the neighborhood is scared of the radleys house. The kids dare each other to go touch it, and they did. Unfortionaly nothing happend. Then when there at school they find a hole under a tree and find chewing gum, and lots of treasures under it. Then it talks about scout and how he's a coward. Sooner or later a fire startes at the neighbors house when it snows, and they build a snowman. The fire truck comes, but it still burnt the house down to the ground.

  3. So far in my book there Ida main character named Scout and they she is in 1st grade. Her brother is named Jem and he is in fifth grade. They have made a friend named Dill and they play with Dill only in the summer because he goes somewhere els during the school months. On Scout and Jems street their is a house that belonged to people called the Radleys. The Radleys had this one crazy son named Boo. Boo stabbed his mother with a scissors And when he couldn't find anything to eat he bit his moms finger off to eat. So Boo got locked in his room and tied to his bed. For fun Jem, Scout, and Dill play and go and try to touch the supposedly haunted Radley house.

  5. After the fire started at Miss Maudie's house, the kids went to school and then came Christmas! His uncle Jack came. Next Mr. Nathan cemented the tree where they were finding all of their goods. The snow then started falling. They took a wooden peach basket and transported all the snow from the yard over. They build a snowman using the snow and dirt. They had to leave the worms out.

  6. Over the course of the summer Scout, Jem, and Dill came up with a games where they play different people around the town and they pretend they are the Radleys. One day they were playing and Atticus caught them playing and made them stop. The next night Scout, and Jem went to spend the night with Dill because it was his last day in Maycomb. So they decided to go to the Radley house and look through a window and see if they could see Boo Radley. Dill went to see first and he saw a room with a light on so they decided to go and look over in that window. On their way over they saw a shadow and when they were leaving someone shot a shotgun at them.

  7. So far into Kill a Mocking Bird is that Jem and Scout went to Dill's aunts house because it was Dills last day in Maycomb. They were going up to Boo Radley's window to get a look inside to see if they could get a glimpse of Boo Radley. After they did that school started a couple of days later. When they were walking home from school Jem had told Scout that there was something he didn't tell him. Scout was confused and asked what it was. It was that his clothing was all sewed up and over the fencing like someone knew he was coming back for them. Then in chapter 8, the season changed from autumn to winter and Maycomb had the coldest weather since 1885. It also started snowing. Which was the first time since 1885. Then they go to Miss Maudie's house and ask to take some of her snow. Once they have the stuff they need, they start making a snowman. That is as far as I got in the book so far.

Next day Boo was found walking on the road the two kids asked them about the treewhere they found all their goodys. Later then in the book though Mr.nathan fill the tree with cement.The section ends with Miss Maudies house burns down the day after the first snow. As the two kids sat and watch the fire they never saw mr.radley come out and give them a blanket because theywere cold.

  12. In what I have read currently an old lady named Mrs. Dubose said some nasty things to Jem and Scout about Atticus. Jem got so mad on their way back home Jem cut down all her flowers in her yard. When they were home Mrs. Dubose knew they did it and told Atticus on them. For Jem's punishment he had to read to Mrs. Dubose at her house for a month. Everyday when they were there she had fits and still made awful comments about their father. A month after Jem Had finished reading to Mrs. Dubose she died. She died because she was addicted to morphine and couldn't stop taking it. By the time Jem and Scout got over her death it was summer but Dill couldn't come to Maycomb because he got a new dad and he had to stay with him the rest of the summer. Atticus got called on a two week Legislature thing and the kids were home alone with Cal. On the first Sunday Cal decided to take the kids to her church for black people. A lady named Lula did not want the two white kids there but everyone else wanted them because their dad Atticus was helping one of their fellow black people on a case. So they stayed for church.

  16. So far in my book they are sentacing Tom Robinsin in court for things that he could not possibly do in court. Jem and scout are watching the hole thing go down as Atticus does all that he can to defend Tom. At this point it seems like Atticus has them fooled by basically proving there is no way Tom could have done it. That is what ive read so far.

  19. In my book right now one night Scout thought she stepped on a snake so Jem checked under her bed and found Dill. Dill said that he ran away because his new dad and his family get along without him better and tell him to go away when he tries to be by them. So Atticus let him stay with them at their house. Aunt Alexandra came to and she is trying to make Jem the gentlemen that he is and Scout the polite lady that she is. So far it isn't working. One night Scout, Dill, and Jem sneaked out of the house when Aunt Alexandra was asleep. They found Atticus protecting Tom Robinson by the jail from some people who were going to hurt him.

  21. So far in the book, Atticus and Tom Robinson are in court, and they are seeing if Tom is guilty. The judge does a lot of deciding. At one point, Jem, Dill, and Scout come to the court. Later on Cal comes in and gives Atticus a note asking where the kids are. Cal gets really mad when she finds out that Jem let Scout go into the court house and listen to all the stuff going on in there. Cal brings them home for supper and then Scout, Jem, and Dill go back because Atticus said they could. Later on, Atticus and Tom Robinson won.

  22. In the book this week we mostly just had the court trial. In the trial Actucis stresses many points on how Tom is not guilty one is that he doesn't have a left hand to punch maylel on the right side of her face, were most of the bruises were. Before all of this Acticus and Jem and scout all heoped to stop the other white people from hurting Tom at the jail. The chapters end as the court waiting for the jury to decide who won.

  23. Tom Robinson is in court and Atticus is doing all that he can to try and defend him. Atticus has proven that Tom could not have chocked and punched her because he does not have a left are and the guy who beat her led with his left hand. Aunt Alekandria thought the kids were missing but they where at the corut house and then the kids went home to eat supper. They are going to go back latter to see if Tom is inasent.

  24. At this point in the book Tom Robinson is being tried in court and Atticus is defending him. Atticus had a main point that really proved that Tom was innocent. Atticus found that Bob Ewell was left handed and he would really be the one to hit Mayla. After Scout, Jem, and Dill ate dinner they went back to the courthouse and the jury found Tom guilty.

  25. In this section of our reading jem and scout have to go back to school meaning dill left,but the excitment didn't end as tom was sent to the county jail. The days past and nobody passed the ewells house. Lastly at the end of the book actticus came home to tell the family that tom robison had died trying to escape. They said that if he would have had two arms he would've escaped.
