All the time during football season, I would get angry and do something against my values.

In TKAM, Scout tends to act like this throughout the novel. Almost all throughout the book, Scout would be respectful to most characters in the book until they treated her or her family with disrespect.]]> 2017-11-27 19:11:15 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603360 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603399 2. Can you think of a time when guilt clouded your conscience?
A couple years back, my family and I went to a reptile fair and my father decided to get a chameleon. I was against the idea at first, but once I was able to name him Gecko, I was on board. We had Gecko for a couple months until he started acting strange: he refused to eat and would not sleep on his plant that we bought for him. Instead, Gecko would hang on the side of his cage and sleep in odd positions. Finally, after a week of odd behavior, my mom, brother, and I found Gecko upside down... dead. He managed to hang himself and we were shook beyond belief! Following the event, my family and I threw Gecko away...

Guilt overcame me as I felt like a bad owner and did Gecko dirty. The end.

We can connect this story back to the rabid dog and his strange behavior. If he had not been acting strange in Scout’s neighborhood, Tim Johnson would have not died his sad death.]]> 2017-11-27 19:11:18 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603399 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603525 3. Can you think of a time when anger caused you to do something out of character? 

Last year in biology class, we had a raisin-like substitute who would not let us “relieve ourselves.” We were watching this old movie that were forced to watch and were told we can’t go. Now listen, when you got to go... you got to go! Typically, Sydney and I listen to teachers because that’s what you’re supposed to do. However, Sydney just said, “Screw it.” She left and went. Me other hand, I’m goody two shoes. It took my half of the class to leave because I was both conflicted. But I left. She threatened to tell the teacher but we didn’t care we had to go.  We sort of wanted to punch her but we didn’t so.

We feel as if, despite how exaggerated it was, it connects to TKAM where Jem and Scout, despite their anger, had to act like gentleman and keep their head high. They had handled it differently, showcasing maturity we failed to have. ]]> 2017-11-27 19:11:30 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603525 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603580 6) have you ever blamed for something that you didnt do?

one time my brother was playing with the ab wheel and i asked him to give it to me. he then acted as if he were going to throw it but the whole thing fell apart abd hit our tv. both bim and my dad saw what happened yet the both blamed me. 

its similar to tom robinsons case because tom was falsely accused of a crime that he did not commit, even though there were witnesses that knew what really happened ]]> 2017-11-27 19:11:36 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603580 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603587 3.

My hair is really curly and in the summer it's super curly and frizzy like really frizzy. So I have to put alot  of products to calm the frizz and none of them worked so I got super mad and I cut my hair to my shoulders and with curly hair it looked shorter than it normally would and I would never cut my hair because it was super long and easy to maintain in the fall,and  winter time of the year .  

How it relates to story 
Bob Ewell got mad at Atticus because he knew the truth about him so he acted out and went after Atticus' kids which normally would just fight Atticus. Elizabeth got angry because her hair wouldn't cooperate and just chopped it all off.]]> 2017-11-27 19:11:37 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603587 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603614 Have you ever ever been blamed for something that you didn’t do?
 
This happened when I was in first grade. I had been coming out of lunch and was walking to my classroom. The rest of my classmates had made it back to class and I was the last one. As I was walking there was a line of kindergarteners walking behind me. Before going into my class I went to the water fountain to get a drink of water, then proceeded back to the class room. After walking in I shut the door and sat in my chair. I then heard a child screaming behind me. I ran to open the door and saw the kid he was crying and a teacher immediately came to see what the problem was. The child who was in pain explained that I “slammed his fingers” in the door. Even though I was sitting in my seat at the time of the incident. The child was playing around by the door and left his fingers in the crack when the door shuts I just didn’t realize it at the time. 
 
To relate this to the book To Kill A Mockingbird Tom Robinson was falsely accused of beating and raping Mayella Ewell eventhough he was a honest witness and and Mayella since she was white she had the juries side on the final answer of wether or not Tom lived or not. ]]> 2017-11-27 19:11:40 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603614 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603847 6) Have you ever been blamed for something you didn't do? 
One time, I refused to let my younger sister play my phone, so as revenge, she started to fake-cry and told my parents that I hurt her to get me in trouble. Like in To Kill a Mockingbird, Mayella accused Tom Robinson of hurting her when he refused her advances. ]]> 2017-11-27 19:12:01 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210603847 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210604004 Have you ever had to deal with a rude adult and still have to respect them?
- I have dealt with a rude adult, and still respected him. I was at the store with my mom and this man had the audacity to say some racist things about Mexicans. I was mad but I still stayed quiet instead of being like him. This connects with the book because when Mr.Cunningham said some things about Atticus and the person he was defending, Scout was told to stay quiet and respect him either way.]]> 2017-11-27 19:12:16 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210604004 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210604064 Can you think of a time when anger caused you to do something out of character? 
- During a soccer game a girl from the opposite team was playing nasty and not getting any sort of fouls. When a corner kick occurred and she bodied me so hard she got a foul. Later on we had to defend each other and she was being so messy at this point I was so mad and fed up with her, I pulled her by the ponytail and while I did get a red card it was worth it. 

To kill a mockingbird-
This story related to TKAMB when scout fought Walter Cunningham at school because she was so fed up with her teacher and tried to help Walter and it backfired on her.

One time money was missing from my mom’s wallet and she instantly blamed me. I was shocked that my mom assumed it was me because I never stole money. It turned out that my mom had spent the money earlier and had just forgot about it.  
This connects to “To Kill a Mockingbird” because Tom was in the same position in which he was wrongly accused of rape even though he did not do it.]]> 2017-11-27 19:12:59 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210604442 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210604998 6. Have you ever had to deal with a rude adult and still have to respect them? 
Yes, after getting off a cruise last year, I had my sunglasses on and waiting in line for the TSA people to check our passports and whatnot. This lady tells me rudely to take off my sunglasses because it’s disrespectful. I decided to keep them on because I didn’t like her attitude. So she’s says it again, I ignored, and she started babbling about how it’s disrespectful because I could be a terrorist. So my mom tells me to take them off because the TSA lady decides whether or not we can come back into America.]]> 2017-11-27 19:13:54 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210604998 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210606284 have you ever made up a story?
in first grade we had an event called "buddy day" where ww got to soen the entire day playing games outdoors with a friend of our choice.There were usually little prizes/snacks for sale on this day, so my parents gave me some money and warned me to spend it wisely. I hadn't a single cue as to what my parents considered wise spending, so ended up spending the money on a pickle and a temporary tattoo.When I got home they asked me for the extra change back and so i handed them a few coins. When they asked me what i bought i panicked and said I had onky bought a new pencul to study with. They wondered why i had only a few coins left and assumed they had taken advantage of an innocent child.]]> 2017-11-27 19:16:00 UTC https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210606284 https://padlet.com/hn190000/cjl7yr8o7mqg/wish/210606850 9. Would you rather stay silent to prevent an uproar or risk everything for what you believe?

I would rather stay silent and not cause an uproar because most likely I wouldn't be the only person to feel a certain way therefore, someone else would speak on the issue. I feel there is no issue worth risking everything for. 

We feel that Atticus risked everything for his belief in equality despite what the town's views were on the situation. He risked the respect from the townspeople when he represented Tom Robinson in court.
