2. PLOT
EXPOSITION
Outside, Scout beats Walter up because helping him got her into trouble. Jem stops her, and invites Walter to come eat
at their house.
RISING ACTION
During lunch, Walter talks with Atticusabout farm work like a grown up. He says he can’t pass first grade because he has
to help his father in the fields.
CLIMAX
As he eats, Walter pours molasses all over his food. Scout is disgusted and says so. Calpurnia pulls her from the table
and scolds her, saying Scout should never comment on someone’s “ways like you was so high and mighty.”

3. FALLING ACTION
Back at school, Miss Caroline screams when she sees a louse in the hair of a filthy boy named Burris Ewell. She
tries to send him home to wash his hair, but Burris says he’s “done his time for the year.” A kid in the class
explains that all the Ewell’s come to school one day a year to keep the truant officer off their backs, then never
come back.
RESOLUTION
That night, when Scout says thatMiss Caroline wants her to stop reading at home, Atticus counsels that instead
of getting angry, Scout should try standing in Miss Caroline’s skin to see things from her point of view. He also
says he’ll keep reading with Scout if she keeps quiet about it.

4. THEMES
Growing Up
• Outside, SCOUT beats WALTER up because helping him
got her into trouble. JEM stops her, and invites Walter
to come eat at their house.
• As an older child, Jem is less inclined than Scout to
settle things with his fists.
• During lunch, WALTER talks with ATTICUS about farm
work like a grown up. He says he can’t pass first
grade because he has to help his father in the fields.
• Scout’s prejudice that poor people are dumb is
shown to be wrong. Poor people are just poor.

5. Prejudice
• As he eats, WALTER pours molasses all over his
food. SCOUT is disgusted and says so. CALPURNIA pulls
her from the table and scolds her, saying Scout
should never comment on someone’s “ways like you
was so high and mighty.”
• Scout is quick to judge anything different from her
way of doing things. Calpurnia, though, insists that
Walter, and by extension all people who are
different, deserve respect.

6. Good, Evil And Human Dignity
• That night, when SCOUT says that MISS
CAROLINE wants her to stop reading at
home, ATTICUS counsels that instead of getting
angry, Scout should try standing in Miss Caroline’s
skin to see things from her point of view. He also says
he’ll keep reading with Scout if she keeps quiet about
it.
• Scout’s first exposure to Atticus’s belief in trying to
understand and respect other peoples’ point of view.
Atticus’s willingness to keep reading with
her, though, shows he doesn’t just bow down to
authority.

7. CHARACTERS
• Jem
Protective
 When his sister had a fight with Walter
Cunningham, he tried to stop them. Although he was
mad for Scout’s action but he actually was trying to
protect Scout from any harm.
• Scout
Curious
 The curiousity of Scout obviously shown when she
was curious to about various topics (school, the
frightning neighbour, Boo Radley and all the strange
people in town)

8. • Atticus
A good adviser
 When Scout didn’t want to go to school, he gave her
some advises to her.
 He also made a compromise with her, if she go back
to school, he will read to her every night.
• Walter
Depress with his poor life
 As he was from a very poor family, he didn’t even
have money to buy food. Therefore, the
teacher, Miss Caroline, gave him a quarter but he
refused. His family and him will not take anything
from anyone as they knew that they cannot pay it
back.

9. SETTING
SETTING OF TIME
• Afternoon till night : Starts when Jean Louise
(Scout) catches Walter Cunningham in the
schoolyard and beats him up for being the reason
she got in trouble, but Jem stops her. Jem invites
Walter to come home for lunch with Scout and
him.
• The chapter end at night. After dinner, Atticus
invites Scout to come read with him, which
reminds her of her run-in over reading with Miss
Caroline that morning.

10. SETTING OF PLACE
• Schoolyard: Scout beats Walter when he got her
in trouble with Miss Caroline in the class.
‘Catching Walter Cunningham in the schoolyard
gave me some pleasure, but when I rubbing his
nose in the dirt Jem came by and told me to stop’
pg.30, line 1
• Finch house: Walter asks for molasses, which he
proceeds to pour all over his food. Scout asks him
what the heck he’s doing, and he stops in
embarrassment.
‘Atticus was expounding upon farm problems
when Walter interrupted to ask if there was any
molasses in the house’ pg.32, line 8

11. • Kitchen at Finch house: Calpurnia calls Scout
into the kitchen, where she gives her a lecture
on hospitality – Walter’s a guest and so he can
do whatever he wants without Scout judging
him for having different manners from what
she’s used to.
“There’s some folks who don’t eat like us,” she
whispered fiercely, “but you ain’t called on to
contradict ‘em at the table when they don’t.
That boy’s yo’ comp’ny and if he wants to eat
up the table cloth you let him, you hear?”

12. MORAL VALUES
Respectable
 During Walter’s visit, he puts syrup all over his meat
and vegetables since he came from a poor family
which rarely found that. Scout gets mad.
 Then, Calpurnia scold her for her bad attitude. Scout
should respect Walter’s desire although it was
inappropriate on her eyes.
 In the story, Burris Ewell was very disrespectable to
his teacher, Miss Caroline.

13.  In page 35, when Miss Caroline asked him to bathe
himself before he came to school, the boy laughed
rudely as the reply.
 Then, he leaves the classroom, making enough
vicious remarks to cause the teacher to cry.
Concern
 In the schoolyard, Jem came by and told Scout to
stop fighting with Walter.
 As a brother, he did not want Scout to get involved
with the attitude that might lead to a bigger
problem.
 In addition, he didn’t want Scout to get hurt.

14.  Atticus- even though he was very busy with his work,
he still has time for his kids. Every night, he read to
Scout before she got asleep.
 Sometimes, he allowed the kids to follow him (to
Helen Robinson’s house). This showed that he always
take care about his children.
