I am reading the book To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I have read chapters one through three. In this story Scout and Jem live by a house that everybody fears and the house is occupied by Boo Radley. I predict that the kids will not meet Boo Radley.
G Through the first chapters Scout and Jem are scared of Boo and he is locked up. Y Locked up R Radley’s don’t leave their house (page 11) R Jem and Scout have never seen Boo (page 10) R not many people come and go from the house (page14) Y Scared R nobody walks on the sidewalk (page 11) R Jem’s description (page 16) R they run past the house (page 31)
G ultimately the kids will not meet Boo Radley because he is locked up and they are scared.

This shows that Boo is locked up because, he never leaves the house, and he never sees the outdoors and the people who he lives around. The second reason that Boo is locked up is that Jem and Scout have never seen him. In the book it says, “People said he existed, but Jem and I had never seen him” (Lee 10). This shows that boo is locked up because Jem is ten years old and he has never seen Boo so he has not been out of the house in at least ten years. The third reason Boo is locked up is that not very many people come and go from the Radley place. In the text it states, “and he was one of the few persons we ever saw ever enter or leave the place” (Lee 14). This tells that Boo is locked up because only a few people come and go and if he was not locked up the house would have people coming and staying and it would be a busy house. The second reason that the kids will never meet Boo is that they are scared of him. The first reason that they are scared is nobody will walk near the house. In the text is says, “A Negro would not pass the Radley Place at night, he would cut across to the …show more content…
First, the Ewells are extremely disrespectful. One of the reasons they can be considered disrespectful is that they talk back to the teacher. In the text Burris says, “You just remember that you ain’t makin’ me go nowhere” (Lee 37). This shows that the Ewells are disrespectful because Burris just told his teacher that she can’t make him do anything and she is in charge. Second, the Ewells can be characterized as disrespectful because they never come to school. The text states, “They come the first day every year then leave” (Lee 36). This explains that the Ewells are disrespectful because they do not bother to care about their education and they do not respect that getting an education will help them in the future in order to get better jobs than farming. The last reason that the Ewells can be considered disrespectful is that Burris swore and called the teacher names. In the text Burris says, “Ain’t no snot-nosed slut of a schoolteacher ever born c’n make me do nothin’” (Lee 37). This shows that the Ewells are disrespectful because Burris had the nerve to call his new schoolteacher a slut and the proceeded to leave the room and disrespect her. The second adjective to describe the Ewells is dirty. The first reason they can be seen as dirty is that they do not wear shoes. This demonstrates that the Ewells are dirty because they walk around the farms and the streets and also they school yard with out protection on their
