Today we discussed, at length chapter 11. We learned about rabies, morphine addiction, and mockingbirds. We discussed the figure of the mockingbird and most of the class agreed that characters in the novel will, in one way or another, be mockingbird figures.
We read out the section where Atticus explains it is a sin to kill a mockingbird. We also highlighted the change in Scout and Jem's perspective regarding Atticus (they discovered that he can, in fact, do something, after he kills Tim Johnson the rabid dog). We also discussed chapter 11 and the role that Mrs. Dubose plays.
We then completed an in-class sheet on Foreshadowing in the novel (this was discussed in class and not taken for marks).
