Chapter Four (End of the chapter)

At first Jem had a game Idea and it was called Boo Radley. They played it by Scout being Mrs. Radle, but then she said that she is not sure she wants to play. Then Jem told her that if she is still scared about Boo Radley. Then she decided to play her role was just to be Mrs. Radley and come in and sweep the porch. Dill was Mr. Radley and all he had to do was just walked up and down the sidewalk and coughed when Jem spoke to him.

Jem was Boo Radley and all he did was under the front steps and shrieked and howeld from time to time. Then they were still playing and then one time Atticus came in and saw them playing Boo Radley.  He ask what were they playing and Jem just said nothing and Scout just did not say anything. Then Atticus saw the scissors and told Jem what were they for and Jem just said nothing and Atticus took the scissors and he also ask Jem if this had something to do with the Radleys and Jem said no. Then Atticus said he hopes it doesn't, then after Scout did not want to play because one reason is that Atticus and the other is because she heard a laughed inside boo's house.

  1. Good job Aldo, really enjoyed reading this post. And its true, Jem, Dill, and Scout started to play Boo Radley which was basically them recreating scenes of gossips they have heard from probably Miss Stephanie. Also, If I was Scout I would have the same opinion as her, I mean she heard a laugh. Which could mean that someone is spying in them which would be creepy. And Atticus does not approve of it so why do it? Its also very disrespectful to make fun of someones life when we don´t know anything about the person. Overall, great job and keep the effort going however I would add your opinion to the post, and dont just summarize.

  2. It was weird that they were playing as the Radley family,I think that they shouldn't play the game because the Radley family wouldn't like it.You did a good job explaining the characters parts like Scout played as Mrs.Radley,Dill as the Mr.Radley,and Jem was Arthur(Boo Radley).Since there is a lot of gossip I think they did the one with Arthur hurting MR.Radley with scissors,I like your work but maybe add like what did you think of this chapter and tell us your opinion.

  3. Good job ALdo over all and I agree with you Alexandra. Yeah I would be creep out if I heard a laugh. And Atticus didn't approve of the game. Also it is mean to roll play someone that you think is mean and all of that. When really he could be the other way. Very good job just add more of your opinion.

  4. Overall, I like your post its short,but is very detailed about the scene. Where Dill,Jem,and Scout were playing as the Radley's. I do think that Jem is starting to change a little, he is lying to people and not obeying Atticus. Overall, I do agree with Alexandra, to make your blog post more interesting I would add your opinion.

  5. It is kind of mean that the kids would just help with all of the rumors about boo radley. Also though they don't know that they are doing anything bad, but still they should know that they should just play a different game instead. It is really weird that she heard a laugh , but maybe someone inside the house was just laughing because of something in the house. Good job Aldo on you blog.
