Level 1: Scout

Scout may or may not be a lover, but she's definitely a fighter. At the beginning of the novel, fighting is her solution to everything.
So, why the short temper? Well, for one thing, she does seem to win her fights most of the time, so it's a technique that's working for her. For another, if might makes right, then she doesn't need to worry about the trickier business of figuring out the moral right: righteousness goes to whoever is the better fighter. Scout's fighting shows her quick temper and lack of self-control, but it also suggests that she's kind of a simpleton when it comes to moral matters. She wants a quick fix to complicated questions. (To be fair, she is six.)

Level 2: 

Jem



Jem looks out for Scout and—okay, we'll say it—kind of bosses her around. He definitely tries to get her to do what he, in his superior knowledge from being four years older, knows she should do. Asserting Scout's inferiority, as younger and a girl, appears to be one way that Jem boosts his own ego. Scout knows what he's up to, but lets him get away with it. Maybe treating Scout as a child is a way for him to establish himself as a grown-up.

Level 3: Atticus
You know all those stereotypes about lawyers being nasty, money-grubbing people? Well, meet Atticus, giving lawyers (and dads) a good name since 1960. I
Neither of the Finch kids ever calls their father "Dad"; he's always Atticus. Weird, right? But we get the feeling that it's their way of showing him respect, just like he shows them respect. For one thing, he doesn't dumb down his language to what he thinks is their level, but he also is willing to explain patiently whenever they have questions.

*Some of you expressed some confusion on last nights HW. Here is a modified version to hopefully improve and expand your understanding of the task! 

Reflect on our study of symbolism today! Create your own example of symbolism. Choose a symbol, like an animal, and explain what that symbol represents. For example, many people believe lions represent power or strength. 


SYMBOLISM: the use of symbols to represent ideas.

Ex. The Mockingbird is a symbol used in the novel to represent innocence.
