Let's try again

Let's try to answer the previous blog. So if you need to, please re-read the blog entry. Concentrate on class this time. Later on we will be discussing the theme of prejudice. Right now, I want you to concentrate on the differences between social classes in the book/movie.

I'm looking forward to reading your responses.

Another theme this story has is the different classes.(high or low)Most of the people in the Maycomb County would be lower class and have too pay other people back in food or wood. Like what the coninghams did to Atticus. It shows that people base there friends on how much money someone has. This is a very bad thing to think or do and that’s why Atticus wants jem and scout to leave the Radley house alone. People should realize that they are the same. They are judging them only about how much money they have or their background. Atticus shows that he doesn't care about any of this but; instead he feels sorry for anyone and shows sympathy for anyone. Like in the case he took with the black man and taking this case put him and his family in danger. Mostly people or even kids would be teasing jem and scout or ignoring them because Atticus took the case. (Atticus betrayed his people)

In the story the theme of the story is class (High Low). I think that Scout is poor and rich. I think that she is poor because her family does not have alot of money. Her father is a lawyer but doesn't make alot of money. She is rich because her and her brother can have fun with anything. She is never bored. Also it is the Great Depression so her dad cant make much more money for there family.Also i think that they pick on the Radleys because they dont have much money. Scout and Jem are judging them when the dont know them. You should not judge people if you dont know them.

A theme in the story " To Kill a Mockingbird there is class. It is the Great Depression and Scout is poor and rich. She is not bored at all. They should not pick on the Radley's after all. Their family does not have a lot of money. They should not tease the Radley family. Atticus took the case against Tom Robinson and he put his family in danger. He feels sorry for himself and anyone else. Atticus wants Jem and Scout to leave the Radley's alone. You shouldn't judge people if you don't know them after all. Most people should stop teasing Jem and Scout.

A different theme is class, as lower and higher classes. For the lower classes they seem to pay people back with products. Like wood, hickory nuts, and crops. Fo rthe high class they more than likely well pay off with money. Know how Atticus sees it is that everybody is equal, lower class, higher class, black. He helps them the same why, and talks to them the same way.So I think that Atticus does not believe in low and high classes

The theme of this story has to do with judgement on different classes. Some people judge people before they even know them, why, because they're just being careful, but some of them are being hurtful to others.Just because you heard a rumor, doesn't mean it's true. Someone can just be making it up. It is bad to judge people before you know it, in some cases it's okay. Like if someone you didn't know had a gun pointed to another person you didn't know, you would think he's a bad person. But if he was wearing a police Uniform, you would think that's he's a good person

The theme of this story is low class and high class. Most of the people in maycomb county are poor becasue of the crash. And Aticus tells his kids to leave people that are poor alone. And he says to live the radleys alone because they never did any thing to them. most people in maycomb are racest and aticus is trying to teach is kid not be like that.
