Welcome back fluency people for the Chapter 3 review! We did it, it was a
long chapter, so let's review some of the vocabulary and especially the story. If
you are just joining us for To Kill a Mockingbird, start here. That way you get
all the good stuff – the meat and potatoes. And if you like these videos definitely
give us those likes, it really helps me, so I can help you more. And subscribe and
then click this bell, if you want to know when the next videos are available. if
you want more practice there's the podcast you can listen to
this anywhere, on iTunes or Google Play – and if you are, definitely give those a
review too. And for some really good practice get your own copy of the book.
All of these links are in the description. Reading by yourself will
really help your English and help you understand a lot more. All right. Let's
start the review. It's after the encounter with Scout and Walter
Cunningham, and she is rubbing his face in the dirt, *blah* and Jem sees this and
he breaks it up. He invites Walter to have lunch with them. Walter is not
accustomed to eating like the Finches, and he is pouring molasses, like this
syrup, all over his food! And it bothers Scout, she says something which kind of
gets her in trouble. This leads to Calpurnia slapping her on the butt,
giving her a little spanking. Telling her, hey! Behave! be a better hostess. after lunch,
or, like dinner, as it's called in some parts of the US. After lunch,
they find a little bug, or a cootie, in one of the boys' hair.
This is Burris Ewell. Seems like a big troublemaker. And what the Ewell's do is
attend just the first day of classes every year. And for the truant lady, the
the person who is in charge of tallying or marking how many truancies, how many
absences students have, this is enough. She lets this pass by.
Finally Burris leaves, he makes Miss Caroline cry. Not a nice guy. Uses some
very strong language. Finally Scout returns home after this
first day of school– this was all just one day of classes. It was a very long
day for miss Scout Finch. Everybody's being very nice to her. They recognize
that it was a very difficult day. And she said she's not feeling well and finally
Atticus invites her to to do some reading, and of course Scout is a bit
nervous. Atticus realizes this and makes a compromise. Remember kind of an
agreement: each party is not extremely happy but they find a middle ground, an
arrangement or agreement. Scout agrees that she will continue to go to school
if they can continue to read together. Atticus also mentions that everybody had
really learned a lot that first day of school, and that she needs to crawl into
someone else's skin. Again, sounds a little disgusting, that expression. It's
more common to stand or walk in someone else's shoes or moccasins. The family
reads together and then on Saturday, Jem spends the entire day aloft in his tree
house. And Scout is kind of supplying him food and comfort and warm blankets. Until
finally Atticus tells her to stop it and let Jem come back in. So we will see what
happens next because so far this book has been very quiet. Not a lot of real–
except for one of the young students almost stabbing– stabbing another student...
The book has been quite quiet. It's little old Maycomb County remember. If
you have any questions, any comments, any suggestions, put them down here! In the
comments. That's what I'm here for. And next time we will start with chapter 4!
Remember give me those likes. If you want more practice, the podcast even more
practice, the book to read on your own. And if you
haven't, subscribe! And click this bell, so you know right when the newest
videos are available. I'll talk to you soon.
Ciao for now. Adios!
