●● How did Jem get even with Scout for contradicting him about "Hot
Steams"?
Answer: Jem gets even with Scout for contradicting him about "Hot

and both her and the tire land in the Radley's front yard.
●● What was the Boo Radley game?
Answer: The Boo Radley game was similar to a skit. Jem, Dill, and
Scout would pretend to be the Radley's and they would act out rumors
about them. Further into the game, Scout quit, however.
●● Identify Miss Maudie
Answer: Mrs. Maudie was a person who lived on the Finch's street who

Answer: Dill and Jem wanted to give Boo Radley a note because they
