This blog is for the use of 8th grade students to share and improve their writing. The students will respond to novel discussions and will choose topics of interest to blog about and I will moderate and administrate their posts. Our goal is to share our voices with an authentic audience who will provide us feedback on our thoughts. We hope you enjoy our work!

Making a Personal Respone
The thing that struck me the most about the justice was the way people lied in the court room. Even when Atticus had a bunch of evidence to prove tom Robinson innocent. When he did prove him innocent the jury still said he was guilty even when he really was not. The reason they said he was guilty was because the people in maycomb are so prejudice that it didn't matter. Even the judge know he was innocent you tell by his face and the way he slammed the door plus they were under oath. the event that led me to this was that the way white people in this book/movie treated black people. Tom Robinson testimony sounded truth and he did not mix it up or get confused. Mayella did mix her story up a few times and she confused her self that is why I did not believe her. I learned that people were extremely racist in the past and still are today I like that it's not right.
