Understanding Social Conventions in "To Kill a Mockingbird" - Day One Activities

On Day One of exploring "To Kill a Mockingbird," students will engage in critical listening and summarization skills through various activities. We will begin with a foreign word of the day and follow with a redo test during the first block. The hook will include images leading to group work where students will read and present key points from selected essays. In the second half, they will read Chapters 1-3, focusing on the social conventions of Maycomb, before creating a list of social rules from Scout's perspective. The lesson closes with a journal entry reflecting on an epigraph from Charles Lamb.
