To Kill a Mockingbird Lesson Plans

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee

Lesson Plans by Rebecca Ray

This classic story has touched generations since it was written in the late 1950s. Set during the Great Depression in Maycomb, Alabama, the story centers around the Finch family. Atticus, the father and a prominent lawyer, takes a case defending an innocent black man. Although Atticus proves his client is innocent, the all-white jury still convicts the defendant.

  • Just a few days ago, Tom Robinson was shot dead attempting to escape from jail. This comes just weeks after Robinson's conviction during one of the most controversial trials in Maycomb, Alabama. The trial divided the town in an incredible display of mob mentality.Accused of raping local woman Mayella Ewell, Robinson was defended by Atticus Finch, a now well-known lawyer in Maycomb. Finch presented evidence that to some seemed irrefutable. One of Finch's lynchpin arguments came from the claim that Bob Ewell, the father of the victim, was the one who beat his daughter. Ewell, a left handed man, would have been able to inflict the sort of bruising Miss Ewell suffered on her right side. Still, the jury found Robinson guilty of the crime.Robinson's attempted escape is being viewed as the acts of a desperate man, perhaps one that knows he is innocent. Despite the divide between the townspeople, there are those outside of Finch who believe Robinson was innocent. story continued on page 2
