 * The color that the character's description is in is what kind of vibe/mood that they give off in the story.

Scout: The narrator and protagonist of the story. Scout has her father, Atticus and her brother, Jem, and their cook, Calpurnia, in Maycomb. She is intelligent and kind of seems like a tomboy. Scout is a “spit-fire” and kind of mouthy.

Atticus Finch: Atticus is Scout and Jem’s father. He is a lawyer in Maycomb and a widower. He has taught his kids the importance of morals and justice. Atticus is very smart and encouraging.

Jem: Scout’s brother and somewhat of a friend. Jem is a typical American boy, and does not back down from dares. He is four years older than Scout. Jem is a dare-devil and very strong-willed.

Boo Radley: Boo seems to be a scary-like character. He never comes out of his house, so he seems like a loner. The kids thing he is dangerous. Boo is mysterious and has the children wondering.

Burris Ewell: Acts as if he rules the world, classmate of Scout, only shows up to school the first day and is very poor. His parents are not encouraging or push their kids to get an education. He is lazy, disrespectful, and do not have money.

Charles Baker Harris (Dill): Scout and Jem’s neighbor and friend. He seems very interested in Boo Radley and dares. He is a great friend and playmate to Scout and Jem.

Calpurnia: The families cook. She disciplines the kids, so I would say she is a strong-willed person! She makes sure they behave, and gives them consequences if they are acting badly. She is like their mother, beings their mother passed away when Scout was two years old.

Walter Cunningham: Walter comes from a very poor family, and cannot even afford one school lunch. He is treated very nicely when with the Finche’s. Walter is very quiet and polite, even though he comes from a financialy troubled family.

Miss. Caroline Fisher: Miss. Caroline is Scout’s teacher and is very friendly, but also emotionally unstable. She is educated and is very strict about her teaching style, and the ability as to what the kids are to learn.

Mr. Cunningham, Aunt Alexandra, Nathan Radley, and Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose do not have enough information to describe what they are like.

Passage number one tells about Boo having disabilities due to the fact that he does not act like a normal person. He tried to kill his father with a scissor out of the blue! I think this passage is important because it should teach the readers not to make fun of mental people.
 * Literary Terms:**
 * Conflict: the problem or turning point in the story involving the character**
 * Characterization: creates characters from narrators point of view**
 * theme: central topic or to as why the author wrote the book**
 * Passage number 1**

The second passage I chose was the maid; Calpurnia. Calpurnia was very motherly towards the kids because their own mother did not want to take care of her own kids. Reason to why I chose this passage was because I find it interesting when a mother cannot take care of her kids, why have children then?
 * Passage number 2**

The third passage I read that founded interesting was talking about Jem. It’s interesting because he was severly embrassed by Scout. That is typical sibling love, I personally think. Jem should care for Scout because then maybe Scout would act better towards people.
 * Passage number 3**

Miss Caroline is a teacher for little children, but is she a good teacher? Why did Scout misbehave at school? She’s a good teacher, it is just that Scout is a hard hearted girl, who judges people. All in all teachers should have respect from their students everyday.
 * Passage number 4**

My connection from passage number 1 would be, my cousin Brendon is specially challenged and does things he’s not proud of him. Yes he’s different but I still love him, he’s a great guy. He will for sure go far in life no matter what; as long as he tries.
 * Connections #1**

My second connection would be about the maid. My sister is like my mom to be because my mom really does not take care of me that much anymore. She is my best friend**.** My third connection is about my siblings, we fight all the time. I kow though Luke will stick up for me whenever I need him to. Siblings should always love one another.
 * Connection #2**
 * Connetion #3**

Connection #4 My fourth connection is that my favorite teacher is Mrs. Nelson she teaches me to be respectful and understand what I'm doing. thank you for that!
