English 10: Reading Section 1: pages 1-112


To Kill A Mockingbird  

Reading Guide

Part 1: 112 pages long which at one minute per page = 112 minutes. 2 minutes per page = 224 minutes

You will have some time during class to read but you must be willing to find an extra half hour per night to keep up with the reading. If you read slowly, aim for an hour per night.

The first section of the novel introduces the children and their innocent version of the world which is slowly corrupted by the actions of the adults they encounter. Look for examples of prejudice and injustice as you read.

You will also be assigned one character to follow throughout the novel so that you become the class expert on that character. Please post-it note these character's interactions. Use a different coloured post-it note if possible.
