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.
