If you were away today...

We discussed the power structure of Maycomb.  Please print out the Powers that Be handout and organized the following characters on the scales: Atticus, the children (Jem and Scout), Calpurnia, Tom Robinson, Bob Ewell, Mayella Ewell, Dolphus Raymond, Heck Tate, and Mr. Gilmer. 

We also went over the answers to the vocabulary and questions for chapters 19-22.
