Were you surprised at how Atticus reacted to what Jem had done at Mrs. Dubose’s house? If so, what did you think his reaction would be towards Jem?
Ch# 12
How do you think Jem and Scout felt being the only white people in Cal’s church? Do you think this experience could make them more aware of how the blacks in Maycomb feel?

Why do you think Scout is hesitant about Aunt Alexandra moving in with them?
Ch#14
Explain the dilemma Atticus is having between his feelings for Cal and Alexandra? How do his feelings towards Cal differ from how Alexandra sees her?

Why do you think the townspeople are against Atticus for representing Tom? How might the circumstances be different is Tom was white, and accused of the same crime?

When Jem and scout went to Cal's church they felt out of place as the only whites in an all black church.Most people welcomed them ,but some did not.This made them more aware of the blacks in the town.

I was not at all surprised at how Atticus reacted. Violence is never the way to go. Atticus seems like the wise type so far in the book who would have these principles. Also, he had not wanted Scout and Jem to get angry with anyone who made fun of him.
If i were jem or scout in this chapter i wouldnt have reated her that way because some people may look mean but they might be really nice and i think that they treated her really poorly and i think thatts mean. if i were calpurnia my realtionship with scout would be positive cause i think that scout seems nice al though she can get really anyoning at times.
chapter 11: I think Atticus reacted in a very reasonable way, and it's exactly how I thought he would react. What Jem did, although he was angry, wasn't right. Atticus knew that to teach his son a lesson about right and wrong, Jem would have to make up for what he did wrong. I think Atticus knew that getting angry wouldn't help the situation, which is why he didn't do that. I also think he wanted Jem to go through with the punishment so that he would learn what true strength and bravery were.
Chapter 12
I think jem and scout felt weird in the all black church, some people repected them but others were not very kind to them.
People were against Atticus because Tom was black and most of the townspeople were white. If Tom was white they probaly would have treated him fairly.

Molly,
I do agree with you, being put in the position of being the only white people in Cal's church would make the kids very aware of how the black people feel. Thanks for responding,

Kate & Emilie,
Atticus does seem very wise. He could not respond with violence because he does not want his children to learn to react that way. I feel he is a great role-model for Scout & Jem. Thanks for responding

John,
Scout does seem a bit pushy at times, maybe because she is the youngest and wants to do everything like Jem. Thanks for responding and happy reading,
Sonnie
I think that Jem and Scout felt odd being the only white people in Cal's church. I think by being there, they could understand how Maycomb treats the black people of the community. They treat them badly, and by going to the church, Jem and Scout can understand that black people aren't bad at all, it's just that the townspeople don't treat them very well at all.
