Session 1 - Summarizer

Here are the summaries of chapter 1 and 2.

Chapter 1

In this chapter there is girl who's name is Scout. She is 5 years old. One summer, her brother Jem had broken his arm. And now, she is trying to explain the mystery of how he broke it. At first she starts talking about some of the people in the neighborhood. In this neighborhood, everybody knows everybody. In Scout's family, she has a father named Atticus, a brother named Jem, and a cook who is African American named Calpurnia. But the summer where her brother Jem broke his arm, is the summer where they met Dill. Perhaps Dill had something to do with the mystery. For the whole summer, they wanted to get Boo Radley out of his house. There was a urban legend that the Radley house was haunted. Everybody knows the different stories that happened in that house. Dill was the most curious about Boo Radley.


Chapter 2

For the longest time that Scout could remember, she wanted to go to school more than anything. But she already knew how to read on her own. So on the first day of school, when Miss Caroline Fisher expected that no one wouldknow how to read, was surprised that Scout knew how. She tells her that her dad should stop teaching her because he doesn't know how. But Scout had learned all by herself. Miss Caroline asked the students what they were doing for lunch. So Walter Cunningham didn't have any money with him. So she offered to lend him some. Scout tried to explain that Walter wouldn't accept any of it because he couldn't pay it back. When Miss Caroline heard this, she was not pleased with the way Scout explained it and hit her on the hands.
