In our 6th grade reading and writing class, we will be reading the screenplay of To Kill a Mockingbird. In order to help you further understand the intricate plot and character development, we will also read the Cliff's Notes of the book chapters. We will compare and contrast the screenplay to the book. To conclude, we will watch the movie and do a final analysis which describes how the film is different from the book. We will film book and movie reviews to demonstrate our understanding and learning. While we are reading, we will research the Civil Rights Movement to gain a better understanding of the time period the characters lived in and how our lives would be different if the Civil Rights Movement hadn't happened. We will also look at what responsibility we hold as citizens to continue to ensure equal rights for all.
