to kill a mockingbird five
Storyboard Text
- When we woke up the next morning, our kitchen was filled with food. All of it was from Tom Robinson's family. A thank you to Atticus for helping him.
- It was a while after the trial that a series of events started that would change our lives.
- The first shocked me to my very core. Mr. Ewell threatened Atticus. He told him he was out to get him. Atticus was not worried, but Aunt Alexandrea, Jem and I were. Atticus assured us that he would be fine, but there was something so unsettling about it. It made me worry for Atticus's safety.
- Atticus said he had brought bad news. Tom Robinson was dead. He had tried to escape prison and the guards shot him. Atticus felt they had had a strong chance to get an appeal. Now it was over. When Atticus left Aunt Alexandrea folded over in a chair and put her head in her lap. She wanted to know when this would be over. She wanted the pain this was causing Atticus to stop.
- One afternoon, not long after the threat, Aunt Alexandrea had ladies over for tea. She had invited me to sit with them. It made me feel special, like a lady. I then heard the voice of Atticus. He called Aunty into the kitchen, and I followed.
- The third event was one that would leave a lasting impression on me.. It took place on Halloween night. I had been asked to play the part of a ham in a pageant at the school. Jem was going to be my escort.
- The pageant went poorly as I fell asleep backstage in my costume and Mrs. Merriweather said I ruined the whole play. Jem made me feel better, but I decided I wanted to walk home in my costume.
- As we were walking home from the pageant Jem and I heard a rustling behind us. We started to walk faster until we broke into a run. We were being chased!
