Welcome to the blog of LMCS's English 9 Classroom!Our class will use this blog to discuss issues relevant to our class readings and activities.
Blog Introduction
Once again, welcome to our class blog! The blog is a place for you to discuss your thoughts about our class reading and activities. We will visit the computer lab, as a class on a regular basis. There will be various assignments and questions posted here that you must complete and discuss.
You are also welcome to visit our blog outside of class, independently and I encourage you to do so. This is a place where you can ask your classmates questions about the reading or other things related to our class.
I remind you, however, that your activity on this site will be closely monitored and you are responsible for your comments. Your comments should be acceptable to everyone. That includes your parents, grandparents, younger siblings, teachers, Principal, etc. Your postings should not inlcude any material that any of these people might find offensive. If you need to think twice about saying something, it is probably best to leave it out.
That being said - HAVE FUN!

2 different stories?
One of the criticisms of To Kill a Mockingbird is that the two central story lines, Scout, Jem and Dill's fascination with Boo Radley and the trial of Tom Robinson, are not connected to one another. Do you think that the two different story lines are part of the same theme or should Harper Lee have written two different books? Explain.

I think they are on the same story line b/c it is showing how the kids are changed and how everyone is affected by the tom robinson case.
i think that the stories are tied together.with jem, scout,and dill being facinated with boo radley they want to talk to him and become friends eventhough everyone else says bad stuff about him.atticus does the same with tom robinson.he defends him eventhough he knows that there will be consequenses from his actions
the cat in the hat and crank
i think they connect because its shows how jem changes into a teenager and that atticus and everyone is affected by tom's case.
