Questions:1. What do we learn about Jem in this chapter?
2. Why is Calpurnia is mad at Jem?
3. Do you think that the Reverend Sykes' advice is good in the real life?
4. How would you feel if you lost a courtcase?
Literary Luminary:
Page 207 paragraph 2. I found this part amusing because Scout is surprised by what's happening and she is really content.
Page 209 quote " Aw, she doesn't know what we're talking about," said Jem. "Scout this is too old for you, ain't it?" This told me that jem tought of him self supirior too Scout now and that he wants to act like it.
Page 209 paragraph 2. This passage tells me that Atticus isn't too worried about the case because he knows that even if he loses that he proved a point.
Page 211 paragraph 3. when scout didn't reaconize why Atticus was walking down the other way it made me think about how often Aticus lost a courtcase.
Summary:
The kids go home with Calpurnia to eat supper. Atticus tells them they can come back when they finish since they have heard everything. They feel happy because they think their dad is going to win the case. After that they come back and they wait for the verdict. When the jury comes back, the verdict is “guilty.” Everyone in Tom Robinson’s side is sad and the people in the upper level wait to thank Atticus and respect him for what he has done.
At the end of of this chapter we discover, as a result of the jury's polls, Tom Robinson is found guilty. This was a big of a surprise to Jem, Sout and Dill even though Revrend Sykes warned Jem not to be too confident that They would win the case. This dark parcel is a symbolism of of an unpleasent surprise or an unwanted gift. It is the reality that Tom Robinson has been falsely accused but Jem refuses to accept it.
