This week I decided to do some revision questions, these will help me when I am reflecting back on To Kill A Mockingbird but I also hope that any others working on this book might find them useful too. The revision questions will be based on chapters 9, 10 as we have recently finished part 1 and these are the most recent chapters we've been studying.
Chapter 9;
1. How does uncle Jack differ to Atticus and how do the Children react to this?
2. What does Scouts reaction to her aunts comments about how she should be behaving tell us about her character, also how is this different to the way she reacts to her cousin when he taunts her.
3. Why do you think Scout disobeys Atticus' orders about keeping her temper? And how do you think the guilt affects her?
4. Uncle Jack gets on extremely well with his niece and nephew, so why do you think he says to Atticus, "I shall never marry, Atticus...I might have children".
Chapter 10;
1.How do you think the taunting at school affects Scout? Especially when she is having doubts about her fathers abilities now that he is 'old'.
2.Miss Maudie tell the children how lucky they are that he is the age that he is, do you think she is surprised by their reaction to this?
3. Calpurnia tries in vain to warn the Radley house about the mad dog, what does this say about her character?
4. Jem seems to understand Atticus' reasoning for not telling them of his talent more than Scout, what affect do you think this will have on her and he thoughts on Atticus?
