Choice C: So far, is this a novel about race? Class? Gender? Coming of Age?
Place? Select and defend your answer
I think this book is about racism because of what happen with tom Robison. Atticus
was not races unlike people in Maycomb he took the case and did not back down
because he was black. Jem and Scout do not see that line between white and black.
When they were watching the court case they sat where the black people sat. One of
the people that were races was Mr. Ewell. He rape his own daughter beat her, and
blamed it on a black person. And when Tom said he felt sorry for his daughter
everyone was shocked. Because the Ewells are poor but everyone thinks that black
people are always going to be at the bottom of the chart. When he said that it was
shocking to them that a black person was higher than them. Then Mr. Ewell killed Tom
and killed himself. This boo is about racism, and Scout growing up seeing the world,
and what is the good and the bad.

Good things.. and Bad things..
Sabrina Jackson
Q: How do you think the story (what you read so far) would have changed if Scout and
Jem had a mother present in their lives? Would it change for the better or for the
worse? Explain your thoughts.
Journal #6
If Jem and Scouts mom were their lives would change, for the better. If she
was their Scout would act more like a lady, because scout is around a lot of boys
like her dad, brother, and Dill. Aunt Alexandra wouldn't be there with them. I don't
think Aunt Alexandra is a good influence on the kids because she races, and the kids
hate her. Cal is kind of like their mother she give them advice, punishes them when
they do wrong, and the kids love her.
The bad things about the mother being there is the dad wouldn't be close
to the kids as much as the mother. Because he works a lot and the mother would do
most of the work with the kids. Cal wouldn't be there because the mom does the
cooking and the cleaning. They might also be races because Cal not their and they
don't have African American influence, and would believe the people that talk about
them.

Journal #5
Perspective: Scout
Dear Journal
Jem is getting older growing up its seems to me that I am not really maturing faster
than he is. Cal took us to church one day and she talks weird. I mean she talks
weird when she around them. When she seen them she talked like them but when she was
around us she speak educated. When we came home from church I seen my Aunt
Alexandra on the porch she says she is going to stay here for "a while". That could
be mouths or even years. I don't have a deep connection with her we have very short
conversations. She and Atticus told me that this was good because they think i need
a feminine influence. Personally i think she should be here nothing bads going on,
and the bad thing about her being here is that she wants to get rid of Cal. I asked
Atticus id i could go to Cals house but Aunt Alexandra answer the question for me
and said no. I told her i didn't asked her and Atticus told me to apologize and
after i did i went to my room. Atticus and Aunt Alexandra got into a fight about
that. I thought they were talking about me and i felt like running away but they
were talking about Cal. Also that night me and Jem got into a fight because he said
if i wouldn't annoy auntie he would spanked me he thinks he could spank me he does
not have that right. So I tackled him and he punched me then i tackle again and
Atticus heard us and told me to go to bed. He was the one who stared it. When i went
to go to bed i felt something I told Jem to see what was under and it was dill he
ran away from home. We got him something to eat and when to bed. Atticus didn't tell
his Auntie which was good so he wouldn't get in trouble.

Growing up
Perspective: Scout
Journal # 4
Dear Journal,
Were growing up Atticus is not getting any younger he doesn't do any cool jobs he
just works in an office not in a drugs store did not drive a dump truck for the
county and was not a sheriff. No he just a boring old office worker, and the other
day when Jem asked him to play some foot ball he says "I am too old for that". He
even wears glasses he was nearly blind on his left eye. He did do things that our
schoolmates did. Its just seems that Atticus is old and boring. But one day he
changed the way I thought. Me and jem were walking one day and seen a dog, it wasn't
just any normal dog walking on the street this dog looked sick and deadly. Jem told
me to get into the house we told Cal and she called and told everybody on the block
to stay in their house and there was a mad dog on the loose! She called the sheriff
and Atticus and came down to look at the dog. He said the dog was deadly and told
Atticus to shoot the dog. Atticus never liked guns or shooting any thing. Jem had a
play gun and he said " you can shoot blue jays and cans but it is a sin to kill a
mocking bird". I didn't under stand what that meant so I asked Ms Maudie she said
mocking bird are special and they copy whatever noise they hear and sing
beautifully. Atticus took the gun aimed and shot the dog. I was so surprise when Ms.
Maudie told me that Atticus was the deadly shot in Maycomb county in his time. Now i
didn't feel so ashamed of him. Later the week, we started going to town more. the
only way there was to go through Mrs. Dubose's pathway. Every time we walk by her
house, she would say something mean about Atticus and us. Jem couldn't take it
anymore he got so mad that he went to the store bought a baton with his birthday
money, gave it to me, broke it, and trashed her yard. Atticus found out and for his
punishment he had to read to Mrs. Dubose's was a month. he read to her for about a
week and unfortunately died. before she died she left a box for Jem it was a flower
Jem looked very angry and threw the box in the fire but later he was hold and
appreciate the flower I guess that was her way of saying I am sorry.

The tree is dead
Prospective: Jem
Chapters 7,9
Dear Journal,
Me and scout were walking to school last month and as we were walking to school I said “Look
Scout!” someone had put cement in our tree. At first Scout said someone else stuff, we both agreed to
leave it there for a while, and if someone comes and gets it then its their tree. We left it for three days
and no one came for it so we made it our tree. Me and Scout were thinking who put cement in our tree.
Maybe Mr Nathan? The next day sure enough it was him he said the tree was dying and that's why he
did that. But Atticus said the tree was healthy. A month went by it turned from Autumn to Winter and
old Mr. Radley died. Atticus went to go to the Radley 's house but didn't see Boo Radley. The next
mourning Scout woke up and said the world was ending but it was just snow, it was her first time
seeing snow. I seen snow before but it rarely snows here. Me and Scout build a snowman it look just
like Mr. Avery. Atticus said it looked lovely but it wasn't nice for Mr. Avery. The next morning woke
me and Scout up it seem it seemed to be a fire at Ms. Matties house. Atticus told us to stay at the
Radleys front gate. We were watching the fire man trying to take out the fire. We also see people taking
out furniture from here house. We went home and made breakfast Atticus told Scout to say thank you to
Boo Radley. Scout asked “Why?”. Atticus said while she was watching the firemen putting out the fire
Boo came out and put a blanket over Scout to keep her warm, if only Scout had turn around.

The hole in the tree
Perspective: Scout
4-7
Journal #2
Dear journal
I was walking home from school today and I looked in the hole of the tree and seen a
piece of unchewed gum. I ate it but Jem told me to spit it out and if I didn't he
would tell Cal. As we were walking by the Radleys place I reached into the hole and
seen another pointy piece of tinfoil. We ran home, opened the tinfoil,and seen
really old Indian heads. I said what if that was someone hiding spot and if we
should keep them. Jem suggested that we would keep them and ask if it was anyone if
it was theirs. Dill came the next day we usually played a lot of games when he was
around but we all got tried of the same games. I suggested that we get into a tire
and roll it down a hill I think Jem got mad at me because he pushed me hard down the
hill. The tire rolled all the way down to the Radleys place luckily I got out the
tire. I told Jem to go get it but he was too scared we made fun of him a little then
he went to the gate quickly got the tire and bought it back. We played another game
call Boo Radley he was the scary neighbor that no one knew about. Atticus asked us
what we were playing Jem said we were doing nothing because if he knew what we were
playing he would get mad, but I think he already knows. Jem kicked me out of the
games because he got tired of my nagging so I went to be with Ms. Maudie she was
nice she would let us play in the yard as long as we would be careful of her
flowers. I asked her what does she thing of Boo Radley. She first tells me that his
real name is Aurthur and that she knew him when he was little and he was a nice kid,
and he would hurt anything. She also thinks he is still alive. Dill and Jem tried to
give a note to Boo that says to come out and hang out with us but Atticus caught
them and told us that we should respect his privacy.

The new kid/teacher
Journal #1
Chapters 1-3
Perspective: Scout
Dear Journal,
I met a new kid named dill. His real name is Charles his name is longer than him.
When we first seen him we thought he was a strange little kid but we started to like
him a little bit. Dill dared my brother Jem,, to get Mr. Radley out of his house. Jem
was too afraid to knock on the door and make him come out so told Jem to only touch
the house. He was so scared at first but he knew he had been dare and he never turned
down a dare. I didn’t think that Jem would do that he looked so sacred I would have
been to. That house is one of the creepyest and scariest things I have ever seen in
my life. It was my first day of school my new teacher was not very nice. She whipped
me and told me to stand in the coner just because I knew how to read. She said to
tell my dad to stop teaching me and thats the teachers job. Later she also offered
Walter Cunningham a quarter because he had no lunch. “You can pay me back tomarro
Walter” she said. But he just stood there and shook his head. He was poor he couldn't
pay her back and, he probably never seen quarter in his life. He came from a poor
family that only repays with food from their farm. I explian to her that he was poor
and probably never seen a quarter in his life. I also told her he couldn't pay her
back. She just stood their looking at me like I was jokeing and making this up, but
it is true he is poor.

Chapter 7: shadows and tall trees
After Jack and Ralph left me with the littluns, they went to look for the beast but
ended up hunting for pigs. Ralph tried to kill the pig, then Robert pretended to be a
pig. Everyone crowded around him. They sang, "Kill the pig, cut his throat, bash him in!!".
Everyone was so excited after and wanted to start killing again.After, Robert whined
that Jack actually wanted to kill something for real, so he suggested a littlun
because they are useless. This foreshadows that a boy in the tribe might be in danger
and also that Jack is really into killing things. Th boys then hunted more of the
beast, they went to castle rock with spears in their hands. When they got there,
Jack chose to go by himself. He came back and was panicking. They went together this
time and saw something on a rock. The dead pilots body turned and the face looked at
them. They believed that it was alive and it was the beast. They believed it because
they were already scared, and they would believe that anything was the beast. Plus
the pilot did not look normal and it was scary. I didn't like the game that they
played because it was childish, but also dangerous, because he might kill a littlun.

Finally got rescued chapter 12
I finally got to be chief! Everybody is in my tribe! Now all I have to do is get rid
of Ralph! Hes hiding under the thicket. I plan to set the whole forest on fire
because the fire will either burn him to death or make him come out of there. I
can't believe Samneric gave Ralph meat! They were supposed to be loyal to me and
listen to what I say. The reason Samneric joined my tribe is because Roger tortured
them. I'm proud of Roger because he is just like me and he likes to get what he
wants. To hunt Ralph Roger sharpened both ends of the spear. One end is to put into
the ground and the other was to put Ralph's head on. When Ralph ran to the beach to
hide he saw a naval officer. When we saw him we froze. The naval officer asked if we
were playing war games and Ralph answered yes. He asked us if there were any dead
bodies and Ralph said that there were only two. He asked us how many of us there
were and then Ralph just shook his head because he didn't know. Then the naval
officer said, “ for a group of British boys you should at least be organized.” The
naval officer continued talking and asked who was in charge, Ralph stepped forward
and said that he was. I tried to explain to him that now I'm chief but then I backed
away. When we saw that we were going to be rescued Ralph broke out and started
crying. Even though I still hate Ralph, he was right about how the fire was
important.

CHAPTER 11 CASTLE ROCK
CHAPTER 11 CASTLE ROCK
Piggy says to bring it with them so that they get a chance to speak, and to show they may have
food and are having fun but the don't have leadership or the conch. Piggy want to reason with
jack calmly and ask him for his glasses back. Ralph, Sam , and Erick want to paint there faces
take spears and force him to give his glasses back. When they get to Castle rock they see Roger
and he challenges him to go see Jack but they get pass Roger and see Jack. When they saw Jack
they were talking about who's a good larder or not and jack got tried of it and tried to kill Ralph
then Roger with a delirious look on his face push the rock over the cliff the rock hit Piggy and he
died. Ralph finally got away in the meantime Jack captured Sam and Erick and tied them up and
the were force to be on Jacks tribe. Jack said truculently "Be on my tribe or be tortured". I
believe Jacks responsible for Piggy's death because he was the one who made the boys wild like
savages. He also made himself chief and gave an order that Roger can do whatever he can to
protect the tribe or where there camping at. Jack hates Piggy and calls him names and I think he
could care less if piggy died, also Jack is talisman and loves killing thing
Piggy says to bring it with them so that they get a chance to speak, and to show they may have
food and are having fun but the don't have leadership or the conch. Piggy want to reason with
jack calmly and ask him for his glasses back. Ralph, Sam , and Erick want to paint there faces
take spears and force him to give his glasses back. When they get to Castle rock they see Roger
and he challenges him to go see Jack but they get pass Roger and see Jack. When they saw Jack
they were talking about who's a good larder or not and jack got tried of it and tried to kill Ralph
then Roger with a delirious look on his face push the rock over the cliff the rock hit Piggy and he
died. Ralph finally got away in the meantime Jack captured Sam and Erick and tied them up and
the were force to be on Jacks tribe. Jack said truculently "Be on my tribe or be tortured". I

Jack's the evil one chapter 10
The shell and the Glasses
Dear journal
Perspective: Simon
Title: Jack is the evil one.....
Ever since I was gone the boys have been acting wild and savageness Jack still believes that the
beast is still out there and that the beast was disguise as me. That show that he is obsess with
killing and hunting. Jack says to Maurice and Roger the beast is still out there and when you
hunt give the beast the head. This shows that Jack is really into the beast and he not noticing
that this is all in his imagination. I heard Ralph and Piggy's discussion Ralph is the sensible one. I
can't believe Piggy's said I was batty I was going to tell you guys there was no beast!! Jack and
his hunters went to Ralph and Piggy's shelter at night and Piggy heard a noise somebody went
in and stole Piggy's glasses. So far Jack is getting way out of hand, first he is with the tribe and a
nice kid, then ever since he killed a pig he been controlling, and mean. Now he steal Piggy's
glasses and decides for himself that he is now chef and some people actually listen to him but
some people don't listen to him and they get tortured. I wish I was there to help you Ralph.
Hang in there Ralph........

Simon's Death :'(
Chapter 9: A View to a Death
In the book there was a lot of sign that Simon was going to die but I never recognize it. Then I
looked more closely into the book I figure out the signs like the pigs head was talking to him. The
lord of the flies was saying that Ralph, Jack, Piggy, and the others would mock him. But what
happen was instead of mocking him he died which I think is a sign. The storm happen when
Simon was going to tell the others that there was no beast but when he went and tried to tell
them, but they killed him. I think the storm symbolizes death and fear because the everyone are
freaked out by the beast and anything that looks strange they will kill. Jack still believes that the
beast is still out there and also thinks that the beast was disguise as Simon which really shows
that Jack really wants to kill the beast. I think its mostly Jacks fault because he's mostly focusing
on the beast and every has a fear that its coming but there is no beast its all in there minds and
that's how Simon dies because they thought he was the beast.

Is the beast real
Perspective: Ralph
Title: The best is it real??
Chapter 6: Beast from water
Dear journal
I don’t feel like the strongest leader anymore people don’t respect me. It’s very stressing when I
tell them to do something and they don’t do it. I told Sam and Erick to keep the fire going and
they were doing there job. As they were doing their job things went wrong first we thought the
beast wasn’t real, now the littleuns believe its there and they saw it. As Sam and Erick were
watching the fire they saw they ran down to tell us best they said it had fangs and claws Jack
said “We shall kill the beast” and told piggy to watch the littleuns I suggested we stay there but
Jack just ran off ahead so I decide why not come with. I don’t believe the best is real it just the
way Sam and Erick described it fangs claws is doesn’t seem real. But sometime late at night I
wonder if there really is a beast is it watching us does it know were here? Is it real? No it…..
Can’t be there’s no such thing as a monster with fangs and claws I am worried that the beast will
find us hunt us down and kill us that is the Question in everybody’s mind. Is the beast real? Will
it find us? Where could it be?

Ralph’s stupid rules
Perspective: Jack
CHAPTER 5: BEAST FROM WATER
Title: Ralph’s stupid rules
Dear journal
I hate Ralph he thinks he’s the most perfect child on earth I don’t even know why he is chef I
don’t think the boys even like him anymore. He was telling us today that we weren’t doing are
job correctly. He acts like he has been doing all the work when really he’s not doing anything he
is just building huts and shelter if he wouldn’t even last two minutes if he was doing my job
hunting is more important then building I bring home the meat I provide food for the others.
Ralph kept on Jeering us about our work. Piggy was also getting on our nerves so I told him to
shut up he said “I got the conch” “I got the conch”. He is so annoying I can’t believe Ralph is
friends with him he doesn’t do anything all Piggy does is annoy every one with his Decorum
and Effigy. Then Ralph brought up the beast thing and you can hear Lamentation from the
littleuns. He said they cry in their sleep maybe because they think there someone watching
them in the sleep or the monster is going to get them. Then Ralph brought up the jobs again, I
get why Ralph would get mad when people go to the bathroom where they want to go but that
the bad thing because it get all over the food. The dirtiest thing about mankind is stubbornness
they do what they want to do not what their told.

jack got the pig
Perspective: simon
Title:JACK hunt the pigs
Dear journal,
The overall mood on this island is very competitive its seems that Jack and Ralph are trying to compete to see who is going to be leader, and I am the one in the middle. I helped find Piggy’s specks today I know that almost every one hate him I figure he has at least one person nice to him. Jack also punched piggy in the stomach and broke his glasses I help him out. Ralf was mad when Jack came back there was a ship and we wanted to see if the ship could see our smoke we went to check out the smoke and it was burn out this was all Jacks fault all he cared about was hunting a pig he finally caught one and felt like a hero but Ralph wasn’t too happy about that. Once Ralf talk to him he apologize then we sated eating the meat I gave Piggy’s mine because he didn’t get any then Jack screamed at me and told me to eat the meat. I think Piggy’s gong to finally stick up for him selfs next time says something it sounds to me that jacks not doing his job I think he just want to do what he want not what Ralph does.

huts on the beach
Chapter 3: Huts on the beach
Perspective: Piggy
Dear Journal,
I am so tired of every body picking on me mostly Jack he is so mean he tells me to shut up and
calls me fat. Nobody respects me except for Ralph well he has been ignoring me lately every
body else are childish I am only the mature one. Today I watched Ralph and Jack argue Jack
wanted to hut for a pig and Ralph want everybody excepted for hunters help him with the
shelter all the other people are playing (I told you they were childish) or relaxing. It sounds like
they don’t even care if they don’t get rescued. Jack is one of them all he thinks about is being
leader and hunting pig, or killing them its like he is Obsessed with killing. So far it seems that
were not going to survive on this island the only one that are surviving are Ralph, Jack, Simon,
and me. I don’t think the rest are going to survive I hope we do.
