BADADING BADABOOM!!!!!!!!!!! We caught Mr. Ewell in a trap that Atticus set it for him. This can foreshadow that Mr. Ewell might have abuse her daughter, because the evidence shows that Mayella was mostly hit in her right side of her face, which means the abuser was left-handed and proves how it could be her own father. Ewwwwwwww that disgust me because it is inappriote for a father to abuse his own daughter. Does any father feels embarrassed when abusing his own daughter?

For my To Kill A Mocking Bird project I did the 10-15 aphorisms. I think that I deserve a A- for my project. My rationale for this project was to learn and understand more about the aphorisms in the book. The steps I took to complete this project was look over the book and find my favorite aphorisms. One of my favorite aphorisms that Atticus said is "Before I can live with other folks I 've got to live with myself.
To Kill a Mockingbird: In To Kill a Mockingbird there are plenty of lessons that you learn reading the book. The one I am going to talk to about is always being nice by seeing things from other’s point of view. There is a quote from the book “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view- until you climb into his skin and walk around in it”. This quote is saying be nice to everyone, because you don’t know what they’re going through. The quote was from Atticus.
Don’t judge a book by its cover because the cover does not show the full story. In the novel “To Kill a Mockingbird” by Harper Lee is a coming-to-age fiction novel that takes place in Maycomb, Alabama and is narrated by a girl named Scout and her Lawyer father Atticus. At the Radley tree in Chapter 7, Scout, and Jem learn that Boo Radley is trying to get out to the kids that helps Jem to come to the age that involves them understanding what’s going on.

Her father is a lawyer who was given a case to defend two African Americans in court, but he was unsuccessful due to racial norms in their home of Monroeville, Alabama.

In Chapter 9 of said novel, Lee’s young character Scout confronts a classmate who had “announced in
In the 1930s, and still now, many people have wondered whether we are all good or evil. Everyone in this world has different opinions of everyone, based on how they act and look. Most people believe that everyone has a little bit of both in their blood due to how they present themselves. People have written and said things describing how we view others and how that affects other people's view on that person. Harper Lee is someone who believes that everyone should think before judging one another.
wanted boys like him to be on the Jury but Atticus had to explain that Jem needed to understand the big picture. Every one of these quotes shows innocence, which shows you that Harper Lee wanted a big chunk of this book to be about innocence. Throughout the book, Scout and Jem prove that they have grown up. Harper Lee writes, “Well it’s hair.”
There are many symbols in To Kill A Mockingbird, but one of the biggest and most obvious ones is the Mockingbird. It is mostly known for itself as a symbol of innocence in the book. It could also stand for very many objects, people, or themes shown in the book. The reason it is known for innocence is because it is a sin to kill a mockingbird as Atticus said to Scout in the book. Atticus said , “Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit em’, but remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.”
In To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee the theme of resisting the status quo means taking a stand is shown through the Finches supporting a black person. For example, when Scout's cousin, Francis, comments on Atticus supporting a black man with, “I guess it ain’t your fault if Uncle Atticus is a n*gger- lover besides, but I’m here to tell you it certainly does mortify the rest of the family” (Lee 45). The quote ties to the theme because Atticus is taking a stand by going outside the status quo and supporting a black man even though most disagree. Furthermore, when Scout asked Atticus what the term, “n*gger lover” meant, he responded by saying it was meaningless. Atticus explains, “n*gger-lover is just one of those terms that don’t mean anything—like
The town of Maycomb made him the target, continued to set him up and made him the victim. As a person has been trapped by the cycle, destroying him and mentally being tricked to reteaching said cycle. We are clearly shown that much of what Mr. Ewell does is built upon a foundation spanning several generations, if the cycle isn't real why would the name Ewell continues as being associated with such negativity. And that he has trapped his kids to the same cycle has himself. “Atticus said the Ewells had been the disgrace of Maycomb for three generations.
The Sixth Sense Wisdom vs intelligence, Which is more helpful? You could compare the definitions, but I think it 's deeper than that. To Kill a Mockingbird is full of wisdom and intelligence that only books can bring forth but it also contains a major lack of these traits and that, sadly, is not only found in books. In this essay, I will try to be unbiased but I believe that intelligence is more helpful.
Maycomb County Teaches : Life Lessons Of Scout We learn many things from school, but we learn the most meaningful things from our own experiences and people close to us. What are the most meaningful things, they are life lessons. They are lessons we learn as we grow up and use throughout our whole life. Similarly Scout the protagonist In Harper Lee’s novel To Kill A MockingBird learns to not judge someone until one walks a mile in their shoes, and not to kill mocking birds.
While school may teach lessons, they are certainly not valuable life lessons. Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird repeatedly shows the ineffectiveness of the education system in a child’s morals. To Kill A Mockingbird takes place in the Great Depression era in Alabama, where education was not the best. Teachers would only seek to teach their classes average, everyday lessons rather than valuable life teachings.
To Kill A Mockingbird, morality is a big part of the theme; what one is taught as a child one will forever use as an adult. The first lesson learned by Scout is empathy. This is taught to her when she and Miss Caroline get into a little fight about how scout knows how to read. Scout comes home and tells her dad, Atticus, about the event. Atticus responds to the event by saying, “You never understand a person until you consider things from his point of view-until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.
