HW Mr. Padilla 12-18-15


Homework: Parents/guardians, please assist your child with today’s homework.

*
Quote 1: “Remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.” That was the only time I ever heard Atticus say it was a sin to do something, and I asked Miss Maudie about it.
“Your father’s right,” she said. “Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy . . . but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.”

Quote 2: "First of all," he said, "if you can learn a simple trick, Scout, you'll get along a lot better with all kinds of folks. You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view […] until you climb into his skin and walk around in it."

Option 1: In both passages Atticus and Scout are having a conversation.  Write a one sentence summary for each quote and then answer the following question.

Quote #1
________________________________________________________________________________________________

Quote #2
________________________________________________________________________________________________

What do these 2 quotes have in common?

Option 2:  Base responses on the reading.

1.     According to Atticus, why is it a sin to kill a mocking bird?


2.     What advice does Atticus give Scout in quote #2?


3.     What do you think Atticus means when he says: “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view…”

Option 3: Explain this quote in your own words. Give a real life example to support your argument.

“You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view […] until you climb into his skin and walk around in it."
