1.Write a Journal entry in which you recall a fight you had with a sibling or a friend - similar to what happened between Jem and Scout in chapter 14.

Describe the fight. What caused it? How was it resolved? Did it bring you closer? If you've never been in a fight, make up the story!

In your journal you must include the following: At least 2 of our new vocabulary terms; and also use Alliteration in your writing.

Alliteration is a stylistic writing technique. It is the repeptition of a particular sound in a sentence. For example, on page 18, Harper Lee writes:
"..we would squirm our way through the sweating sidewalk crowds..." In this example the "S" sound is repeated in the words Squirm, Sweating, Sidwalk. Alliteration will give your writing a little poetic flair. Of course, do not overuse this technique.

Using the account of the trial in chapters 16-21, make a new text by adapting the original.

Your assignment must be between 250-400 words.

Write an account of the events of a chosen day, or a summary of the trial after the verdict for a local or regional newspaper, such as the Maycomb Tribune, the Montgomery Advertiser or the Mobile Register. (All these newspapers are named in the text. While Maycomb is a small [fictitious] town, Montgomery is the state capital of Alabama and Mobile is another large city in the same state.) The article could (should) include exerpts or quotes from an interview with one of the characters: Tom Robinson, Mayella Ewell, Bob Ewell, Heck Tate, Atticus. or other observers of the trial.
