Well, Scout is always trying to be like Jem, ans my younger siblings always try to be like me since I am older and they look up to me. I also don't think that Scout has fully embraced her girl side either. I can relate to that because I don;t really dress up that often but I do like the girl clothes. Its just That I like to be comfortable, and I was a tomboy when I was younger. As I got older I started to grow out of it. Also, I think Jem doesn't like it when scout alwas tries to be like him so he made a comment about her and her being a girl basically which made her really upset. I can relate toJem in tht situation because I like when people are their own person, so it does get annoying when my siblings try to copy off of me .

So, Scout and Jem are starting to part ways a little. They are at different stages in life. This naturally will lead to some tension and Jem being older not wanting to play kid games with Scout. I can remember the days when I used to hate listening to talk shows and watching the news, but now I can tolerate listening to talk shows and watching the news. I can remember the first time when I turned down the offer to play with kids in my neighborhood. They were like a year younger than me and we always used to play. I can remember when I stopped watching kid shows as well.

Edit:
These chapters remind me of "The Chronicals of Narnia". How the siblings part ways.
I found it amusing to read about Jem's story of how he lost his pants. He did not want to disappoint his father, so lying seemed like the best thing to do. I can relate. I feel that if it is more important to stretch the truth to protect someone then it is okay to lie.
I do wonder why he chose to say he was playing strip poker to his dad. It was funny though.
It was interesting when they said that they played strip poker with matches. I did not understand what was meant by that.

I like the book. I already read it.

Scout and Jem's relationship sounds like it's getting a little rocky to me. I can't personally relate to what's happening because I'm an only child but Jem keeps excluding and talking down to Scout. I hate when people say rude stuff about being a girl like Jem has recently been doing to Scout. Jem is way braver than me too because there is no way that I would go mess with some crazy old guy in a house that no one has seen in forever. I probably honestly wouldn't leave my house. Especially after the guy went crazy and shot at them like I would probably leave town because I would be so scared. I could totally see Scout and Dill becoming a thing when they grow up too.

I like these chapters a lot more than the previous ones. Those were boring to me because it was just a lot of detail about the setting and sometimes I felt like Harper Lee went a little too into detail. Boo Radley is definitely one of the more interesting out of the 10,000 characters so far. There really are too many characters and that's probably the most annoying thing about this book. It's just really hard to keep up with who is who and who knows who. At least we have that character worksheet because honestly, I don't know what I would do without it. I'm glad that most of the setting is out of the way but even still it goes so into detail about little things that I just have to skim a lot of it.

Valeria Suarez:                                  I feel like these chapters were like the last ones. It was a little repetitive but easier to read than the other ones. I like how the kids tried to lie to their parents about Jem losing his pants to a game of poker which was funny. This story is still a little difficult to read and I wish we could go over the chapter more in class so the reading check wouldn't be so hard. I also really like the character Miss Maudie because she seems very sweet and had this touch to her that I like. I see Jem is progressing more into being more mature and etc.

In chater 5 i thought it was funny when jem got his pants stuck on the fence when they were getting chase out of the house. I aslo thought that the lie they came up with was top class because when there parents asked them where jem pants where they came up with an exucse that they were playing strip poker at the pond with matches not cards because they said matches were dangerous but cards where unforgiving. I really enjoy how they are all super close with one another and how they Are always going and do things and finding ways to get one another out of trouble. I can remember when i was younger i would go off with my friends and we would always go to this old old old lady's house in my neighborhood and that house was so scary looking because it was under taken care of, we would try to see which one ir us was brave enough to look in the window but none of us could do it.

I thought that Chapter 5 was the best chapter so far. I really loved the scene where Jem lost his pants in the fence. While we were reading I said to my self, "ha he's screwed." But it turned out that he wasn't at all, because his pal Dill is a goat. Dill pulled a made up story out of his arse so fast, and it was kind of convincing too. I didn't really connect well with Chapter 3, because I am pretty good at talking to new people, when I want to. I'm not anti- talk to new people, but I can be antisocial some times. So I don't really feel like I connected with scout all that well. Just like Stephen, I had a feeling that the Radley house had some significant importance in the story, turns out I do have psychic powers. Here is a funny meme for the book:

I haven't been reading each chapter but I did read chapters 3 and 5 while scrambling to do my homework. So far the book has been interesting in both good and bad ways. The book has its moments like when scout who is like 6 is already smart and tough in her own way. But she still is a little kid like when Jem tells her stories she gets scared which is natural. The one thing that gets me every time is how grown Scout is if you give this book to someone with no background info and just let them read parts about Scout I am sure that they would think she is at least a teenager. I think I should listen to the audio version of this to get the full effect because just reading it for me get boring or maybe we just didn't hit the good parts of the book yet and it's still setting up the background for something major to happen like Jem doing something really dumb by killing someone I don't know. Even though we talked about the book and lots of background information I still find it a bit hard to see what direction the book is going to take next. Now back to the actual book, I like how Atticus pays attention to his kids albeit not as much as he knows. Atticus tells Jem to stop toying with the Radley house because they have been doing it for quite some time now but little did he know they were actually inviting Boo for ice cream which is a nice gesture. I am not sure why they didn't just knock on they door, well actually if i were them I wouldn't knock either because of all the stories that we told about the house and who lives inside.

In chapter 5, I though it was a funny and good chapter. When Jem left his pants on the fence of the Radley house. I knew that was going to screw him because he didn't go back to get them before they ran. Throughout the book, the Radley Place was mentioned quite a lot so I knew something big was going to happen in it that was going to be related to possibly the black person Atticus would have to defend. I think the black person in the patch was just look for a place to stay overnight and not trying to steal anything. Dill was quick on his feet to saw he won Jem's pants in a card game. I'm wondering what will happen to Jem and his pants in chapter 6 and if they manage to get them back or if someone finds them. Below I included a little meme that relates to Jem's pants and the Lego movie.

In chapter 3 I connected with the story because just like scout I also don't like to be around with people I don't talk to. I'm a nice person but I don't like to be stuck in awkward situations. Although I wouldn't mind having someone that I don't know, but if I had a choice I wouldn't be with a stranger. Also when atticus tells scout that you can't feel the way a person does unless your in there shoes as he said. I think about my life and how sometimes I wish I could have something that I always wanted, although I don't really need it but I want it. When I do that then I think about the teens my age and how some of them are abandon living in poverty. I couldn't tell you what is like living without eating a meal a day or no food in the pantry because I always had it there, but sometimes when there's abundancy we always want to strive for more, which is not a bad thing, but then you think about all this other people. I mean I'm glad I live the way I do, but I would like to experience how that feels, and it's a very curious thing because sometimes we offend somebody by what we see and we don't know what's happening.  This part of the story really touched me and it's the story is now getting me interested into the book and I want to know more about it and I'm really looking forward to the upcoming chapters.

I think that the educational system in this southern town and some of the laws are very strange and somewhat messed up. Scout gets in trouble and scoulded for being smart, but no one dares to question Burris Ewell who only comes to school once a year. I'm still a little confused as to what Boo's character has to do with anything other than the kids being interested to find out what really happened to him. However, we did come firm that Boo was still alive because of the things he left in the tree and the information from miss Maudie. In these chapters Boo is seen as more of a person by the children then a monster. This makes me more interested to find out who he really is and what he has to do with the story. I could really relate to the part of the chapter when all the kids got together during the summer and did stupid stuff. I kind of feel bad for scout because she dislikes school all because of her teacher constantly scoulding her for being advanced.

I can relate to how Scout thinks about Walter in chapter three. When I was younger I didn't want anyone I didn't know coming to my house. I think that the teacher should be more open minded about the kids in her class. If she was already told once about a kid who has bad living conditions, she should not be surprised by other kids and their home situations. When Atticus was trying to get a confession out of Jem, it made me think of the way my dad talk to me. I think having a tough parent can teach the kids not to do bad things faster because they will be scared to get "yelled" at again. I also think it was wise of Atticus to basically say you can't judge a person until you walk in their shoes because everyone goes through something different, and know one will be able to relate to that. And different people handle different scenarios differently too.

# data[].attributes.body
In Chapter 3, I connected with Scout when she didn't want to bring Walter home to have lunch with them. When I was in elementary school, my sister and mom always made me do nice things for people that I didn't really like or connect with. I also connected with Atticus when he told Scout that you really can't understand somebody until you walk in their shoes. I connect with that because I try me best sometimes to wonder how others feel and try to tell myself that I don't know what they might be going through.  In chapter 5 I connected with Scout when her relationship with the boys started to change she didn't want to lie anymore and possibly get in trouble because they were messing with the Radley's place I remember once when I was young I hung out with some kids at school who were bad and use to get in trouble a lot so my relationship with them had to change and I could no longer be there friend.

I thought that the relationship between Jem and Dill was nice. I also thought that Jem was really rude and mean to Scout sometimes which wasn't good and it's his little sister so he should protect her and care for her more. I think the way Mrs. Maudie describes Jack definitely shows how him and Jem are similar and how they have a wild and unique imagination. I thought that these chapters were interesting when it came to talking about Boo Radley. I want to know already what happened to him and what is he doing. I'm looking forward to finding out how Jem broke his arm. I liked the friendship between Mrs. Maudie and Scout because it gave Scout someone to talk to and Mrs. Maudie likes Scout and respects her.

The only part in chapter 3 I enjoyed was when Jean Louise (Scout) catches Walter Cunningham in the schoolyard and beats him up for being the reason she got in trouble. Maybe it's because it brought back pre-school memories of chasing the "older" boys, threatening to give them "cooties" if they didn't hand over their snack. Or maybe it's just me being a female and anything involving a girl putting a guy in his place is always refreshing #girlpower. However, unlike those poor unfortunate boys who I pushed around did not have anyone to stand up for them, Walter had Jem who took it upon himself to interfere. This act he committed reflects back to Atticus who is doing a good job raising his kids to have good morals.

In chapter 4, when Scout finds stick she of gum in Boo Radley's tree, she does the most sensible thing and chews it (after confirming it wasn't poisonous). I absolutely adored how this part in the chapter showcased her curiosity and naviveness. And of course I could relate to this moment. I too went through a phase of curiousity and have consumed a whole lot worse than wrapped gum. I have had the pleasure of eating an assortment of food off the ground, dirt, worms, already chewed gum, glue, shaving cream, and much more. And all experiences ended with my own version of Jem, my sister demanding me to spit whatever I had in my mouth or she would tell mom.

Chapter 5, we find out a bit more about the mysterious Radley's from Miss Maude who is having a conversation with Scout. Apparently, the family are foot-washing baptists. Now having no religious beliefs, I had no idea what that meant. But it turns out that foot-washing baptists are more hardcore when it comes to their beliefs than a regular baptist. Miss Maudie even admits to having foot-washers scolding her for not spending all her time with the Bible and said she was going to hell for taking lesuire in planting. Me personally, even though I am not a religious person, there are many who do and I do like to be educated on the different religious veiws so I am not ignorant. We as a whole should respect people's religion even if we don't exactly agree. My favorite quote was when Miss Maudie said about the Radley's "so busy worrying about the next world they've never learned to live in this one". This was very intelligent and inspiring. Scout is lucky to have three role models (Atticus, Calcuprina, and Miss Maudie) especially in this time period where people are judgmental.

Two things I love about Scout in Chapter 3 are:

1) She rubs Walter Cunningham's nose in the dirt one minute, but then reluctantly agrees to have him over for dinner the next. When Jem asks her why she's bullying Walter, she quotes her naive teacher confidently even though I'm sure she's not certain of the meaning: "start off on the wrong foot."

2) She's a grownup in a little girl's body. Her class looks to her to explain to the Mrs. Cunningham about the Ewells. I can imagine the whole class surrounding the sobbing woman and Scout with her arm around the teacher's shoulders, calmly comforting her. I'm pretty sure this maturity is due to Atticus' way of talking to his children. He speaks to them as if they were adults which I think my brother experienced growing up. We're 13 years apart, so we didn't really do any of the baby talk nonsense. People would always comment on how impressed they were when he was saying full sentences as a toddler.

Can anyone guess why I posted this video clip from Elf?

In Chapters 4-6, Jem and Scout find things in the knot hole which reminds me of when I was little and really wanted a penpal. Never happened. I would go to summer camp and find a friend. We would return to our homes and maybe write to each other 3 or 4 times. Then, school would start again and the other person would stop responding. One time I kept writing because I desperately wanted to maintain the friendship, and then the girl's mother wrote back and said she was too busy to write, but wished me well. Quite embarrassing to read.

In Chapter 5 when Atticus is getting a confession out of Jem, it makes me wonder what it would be like to have a lawyer as a parent. Would they always know I was lying?

I can relate to Atticus trying to keep a straight face around children who are freaking out about something. At tennis practice one day, I accidentally pegged a girl in the leg with a ball, and she started whining that it was definitely going to leave a mark and how upset she was because this was the week right before Spring Break. I had to apologize profusely and try to appear sincere.
