Chapter 5
Describe Miss Maudie Atkinson? How typical is she of
Maycomb's women? What do the children think of her?
What does Miss Maudie tell Scout about Boo? How does this
compare with what Scout already believes?
Scout claims that “Dill could tell the biggest ones ” (lies)
she ever heard. Why might Dill have told such lies?
What reasons does Atticus give for the children not to play
the Boo Radley game? Do you think he is right? Why?
Chapter 6
Why does Scout disapprove of Jem's and Dill's plan of
looking in at one of the Radleys' windows?
What does Mr. Nathan Radley know about the intruders in his
garden? Why does Miss Stephanie refer to a “negro” over whose head Mr. Nathan
has fired?
Why does Dill's explanation of Jem's state of dress almost
land him in trouble?
Chapter 7
When Jem tells Scout about getting his trousers back, he
tells her of something strange. What is this?
Can you find any evidence that Jem is beginning to
understand more than Scout about Boo Radley? What do you think this is?
Does Jem still fear the gifts in the tree? Give reasons for
your answer.
When the children plan to send a letter to the person who
leaves the gifts, they are prevented. How does this happen? Who does it, and
why might he do so?
Chapter 8
Why does Scout quiz Atticus about his visit to the Radley
house? How much does Atticus tell her?
What is the “near libel” which Jem puts in the front yard?
How do Miss Maudie and Atticus react to it?
Why does Atticus save Miss Maudie's oak rocking chair?
When Atticus asks Scout about the blanket around her
shoulders, what does Jem realize?
Explain what Atticus means by telling Jem not to let his
discovery “inspire ” him to “further glory”? Is there any reason why Jem might
now do as his father says?
