Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 211 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5 by Howard42 Lots of things lacking for Families. While the hotel itself was very nice we found a few things really lacking. There were no directories in the rooms, stains on the sheets, no extra toilet paper in the bathroom, the selection of food and the prices were really awful, not really handicapped accessible, nothing for children to do, and for the price of the room, we felt that there should be a little more added into the price. I would not recommend this hotel. August 12, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by ABx22 Hotel is a bit tired Comforter was thread bare, bed lights didn't work and toilet ran every 15 minutes - otherwise it was great. August 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Kai2013 Recent Stay Great location and features of hotel. August 11, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by picasso43 Is anyone there? Hotel overall was as expected, having stayed at other Aloft locations. Qualities on plus side were location and shuttle to Rosemont blue line train to downtown-seeing this was a business trip. Downside-they forgot to pick me up at train station for one hour-seeing this was a business trip! Started walking. When finally arrived at hotel, manager offered me some free fruit from snack bar. Uh, free fruit? If you are a manager of an upscale hotel, then make something happen that means something to us travelers, like reward points for future stays, hopefully at your location, or at least another Aloft again...

Rated 4 out of 5 by MeetingAttendee23 Fine Convenient Choice We had a board meeting in one of their tactical rooms. We didn't need much in the way of meeting support, so we didn't test those services too much. It was perfect for what we needed. The boxed lunches that were brought in were nice. The meeting room was comfortable, was the bedroom. There are some restaurants near by. The area has a bit on an isolated feel. I don't think I would want to stay there for many days in a row. August 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Nicky80 Basic & modern stay, close to outlets Convenient proximity to airport w/free shuttle that comes every half hour. Located across outlet mall, just cross the lights! 4 bars/restaurants across parking bridge with live entertainment. Mexican bar open till 4am. Gym basic but good. Only complaint was bed comfort was mediocre and linen was poor, with a lumpy duvet, flat pillow and thin towels...they are basic, which matches the brand but seem an unnecessary corner to cut. Bonus, shuttle will also drop you off at 'blue line' Rosemont transit stop to take metro line downtown for $5 in 40 minutes. If you are looking for a one night place to stay close to the airport that is modern, this is your place, just don't expect all the bells & whistles of service, it's not the brand but staff is pleasant just young & not as experienced with high end service. August 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by visine This hotel was clean and perfect accessiblity to MB Financial Park. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The room was cozy, the staff was great, logistically close to everything. I will definitely stay again. August 5, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by chanclas1211 Aloft good but not good food Good hotel meals not good.. August 4, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Luis45 Nice location, staff efficient, not friendly room was clean and comfortable, the location is great if you're flying put of O'Hare. The staff did not make me feel welcome. If you like a bit of attentive service, this may not be for you. Efficient, but not friendly. August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by KCEEF Great hotel and location The staff at this hotel is excellent and location to many attractions is great. Lots to do within walking distance or take the shuttle to the Blue line station to head downtown. Definitely recommend this hotel. August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by beajay This hotel is in a great location Close to the airport, great restaurants and shopping nearby. August 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Drew2014 Staff were perfect hosts Our first trip with pets in tough, first trip flying out of O'Hara airport very intimidating but the staff helped us coordinate it all with ease! August 3, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Mancero Overnight stay Great location. Wonderful restaurants and activities nearby. Minimal amenities at hotel as to be expected. August 1, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by AM777 Close to airport Close to the airport and reasonable prices. Food choices within the hotel could be better. July 31, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by BIGPAPI great hotel Only drawback was the lack of drawer space. Great location, even better staff July 28, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by SomeguynamedMike Great design... poor execution Stayed for one night. The hotel is comfortable and well appointed and should have been perfect my my quick sleepover and early flight out the next day. The parking is awkward (like much of Rosemont). When I checked in, I found that the phone did not work so I could not get a wake up call. Trotted down to the front desk and 20-30 minutes later, someone from engineering came in. He picked up the phone and punched the buttons over and over again for about 10-15 minutes, each time getting the same tone. He then turned to me and said he could not fix it. The shower is a flat floor that would be fine if the floor were laid right (slanting to the drain). It wasn't and despite me trying to keep the water focused on the drain, half of the bathroom flooded with about an inch or two of water. July 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cwalker356 Trendy and Affordable I really enjoyed my stay at Alof. Trendy and affordable hotel and restaurants and great places within walking distance. July 25, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by npwill2014 Great Stay Great Service My husband and I stayed overnight at Aloft Chicago O'Hare on two separate nights prior to and right after an overseas trip. The staff was excellent! Very attentive, friendly and helpful. The room was fantastic with plenty of space and very comfortable. The entire hotel is trendy. We loved it! The only thing I would prefer is a small microwave for heating food purchased at nearby restaurants, an iron and a place to iron your clothing (if needed). Otherwise, we highly recommend this hotel. July 25, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Miggz Good value, location Excellent location for convention events. Wish there was more noise insulation from the freeway and flight path. July 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by John Checkin Staff Scott---The checkin staff was outstanding and could not have been more helpful!! July 19, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Reggie12345 tired Great front desk staff fun and welcoming! Room was beat for only being a few years old. wall was badly scraped up, shower handle fell off really noisy in halls and outside for being on 4th floor and tv reception kept going out for 5 minutes at a time all night long. Hope this helps? July 18, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by CBSDallas Needs a little love a care The property is showing age and it is not that old. Being in the business I can see that maintenance needs to be better. The corridor lights with fabric are poorly installed and the cable TV quality was very bad. The location is great. The front desk staff was very good. No complaints. I think a little attention to the building would make the stay that much more enjoyable. July 17, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by sleeplessfromseattle2 Be aloof, stay away Awful hotel. Toilet leaked even after the engineer "fixed it." One side of the hotel is flanked by large neon signs from the outlet mall that the blinds do not keep out at night. The Duvee was lumpy; it looked like a sheet was covering 6 dead rats on top of the bed. Staff refused requests to provide an alternate room and to replace the awful blanket. The hotel does not have a restaurant. The breakfast is either packaged food or reheated food that appears to have been previously rejected by Sky Chef. When I checked out, they asked about my stay. When I replied "not good" they simply gave me my bill like it happens all the time. July 16, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by MickeyDuck 1st Time I was very excited to stay at a A-Loft. You have AC senors in your room correct ? I woke up in the middle of the night in a pool of sweat. Senors are fine in cold weather but not in hot summers. For that reason i will not be staying in a A-Loft again. July 15, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jimney Great location and hotel Great time and experience. Staff was great and location is great July 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Julzabram Great hotel Loved everything about Aloft!! Never had to get in the car all weekend. Nice accommodations, quiet and comfy. July 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by debadee Great hotel with reasonable rates We had a very quick, last minute trip for navy graduation and found the Aloft very reasonable. It was a great location with a very helpful staff. I would recommend this hotel to everyone. July 14, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by TravelingMomma It was ok The room was clean. But the air conditioner/heater is loud, and the toilet was loud and kept running. You could hear every single conversation happening in the hallway. I attended a training conference there, and the woman who assisted with food for that conference was amazing and very warm and friendly. The woman who bartended the evening I decided to get an overpriced domestic was extremely rude. Desk staff were friendly. There is no restaurant at this hotel, so there is no room service. You have to go out and get food. July 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Chris0872 As Expected Another visit as expected to Aloft. Low key, easy going, friendly staff...that's why I will stay at an Aloft as long as one is near my destination. July 12, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by RAPL88 ..just the bathroom door I loved my stay at the hotel. It was nice, clean and loved even the in room coffee. We did the movie bundle and we didn't get to watch the second movie but I was okay with it, the late check out made up for it. The only down fall, for myself and my boyfriend, was the bathroom door. It didn't close all the way, it was broken and off the rails. I would also say a few more normal pillows, two per person with the long tube ones, should come standard, just my thought. Minus those two little things I enjoyed my stay so much and if an aloft is a choice I will be sating there! Also, loved the 24/7 snack and food area and the breakfast was AMAZING! July 7, 2014

There u have it. 5 good reasons not to breast feed.
Mom to JZ 7-11-12 and my angel EA 6-28-13 spent the best 7 minutes with you in my arms.
I don't think number 5 is even a reason...amazing what people feel the need to post on the internet.
I haven't even ever breastfed and I find her reasons really....stupid.

Is this real?? Lol none of those r valid reasons.
um...wow...most teenagers don't want to admit to shitting their pants either, but we know they all did...
i don't find these reasons very compelling...
Alex 7/3/13
That's a terribly argued set of beliefs, OP. I have nothing against not breast-feeding, but that was an embarrassment to your cause.
Wow, those are not good reasons at all...

Letter: Race shows city's heart
Sherri McDonald, RN, Germantown
Volunteering on the St. Jude Marathon Medical Team — Finish Line Triage, I watched in awe the following racers cross beneath the banner and inspire in others the same awareness that patients of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and their families live every day — "This moment IS your life. Celebrate here, now": a blind man tandem running 26.2 miles with trust; a father pushing his wheelchair-bound son 26.2 miles with love; an amputee on a bloodied prosthetic racing 26.2 miles with determination; a chemo-bald runner completing 26.2 miles with joy; and even tearful parents of St. Jude kids running 13.1 and 26.2 miles, praying every step for a miracle.
Runners, particularly veterans of other marathons, simply explain, "This one is different. You're running for them — for those patients waving to you from the windows ... And this city really takes you in. It makes you feel at home."
Memphis hosted miles of miracle-making runners, accompanied by a stadium full of cheering, finish-line families and friends, supported by a thousand Mid-South volunteers, police, first responders and community members, and showed kids fighting for their lives that they are not alone.
This is what Memphis means to me.

- 23 May 2015 Anonymous South Korea
- " Good, affordable place with proper bunk beds and nice interior design. Very central near all the nice bars but the walls are not sound proof... Located next to a club/bar that also plays extremely loud music on weekdays. Could not sleep all night! "
- 28 Dec 2014 Anonymous Netherlands
- " For a Hostel in the middle of Porto a good valid for Money. Perhaps a Little Too expensive. The Rooms with bathroom inside should put some foil onto the glass. That would increase the privatenes. "

This gun looks pretty amazing. This is a cheap system, but that is because it has no attachments and it may not have the highest FPS. For the beginners or semi-intermediate players this is a well rounded gun with pretty good FPS, great round capacity, and awesome features. I only have 40 bucks so this is something I look forward to getting for my birthday. Don't forget, this weapon can have attachments or be upgraded later with the rail.

To Kill a Mockingbird Study Guide Name_______________________________ Pd.________ To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 1 Pre-Reading Discussion: Purpose: To develop an understanding of what stereotypes are and where they come from To understand the negative impact stereotypes can have on a group To expose and disprove stereotypes that exist Task: Analyze various stereotypes that exist and discuss their impact. Activity: A stereotype is a way of "labeling" categories of people in rigid ways - usually, unfavorable ways. The novel we are about to read is based around the impact of stereotypes and how they can tear a group apart. Looking at the labels below, do they carry connotations that are stereotypical. If so, what are the qualities that are attached to the stereotype? Are some labels themselves clearly negative words that are substitutes for favorable, or at least neutral, terms? Jock Preppie Bookworm Dude Lawyer Motorcyclist Grunge Townie Cheerleader Babe Tomboy Gamer Redneck Computer Geek What common stereotypes are there today that are not on the list? What impact are they having? What impact do stereotypes have on people? Groups? Society as a whole? How have stereotypes impacted our school? Country? World? What we can do in the fight against stereotyping? To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 2 Activity I Only rarely will an author directly state during what time period a story is taking place, but because the historical context of a story can be critical to the story, as in this case, the author does give us some clues. The following sentence contains an allusion that allows us to date thistime period very accurately: "Maycomb County had recently been told that it had nothing to fear but fear itself." The sentence alludes to a line in Franklin Delano Roosevelt's First Inaugural Address, delivered to the United States on March 4, 1933. After reading the four enclosed paragraphs from this speech, state what you know about the conditions facing the country during the years this story took place. Franklin Delano Roosevelt's First Inaugural Address Washington, D.C., March 4, 1933 I am certain that my fellow Americans expect that on my induction into the Presidency I will address them with a candor and a decision, which the present situation of our nations impels. This is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly. Nor need we shrink from honestly facing conditions in our country today. This great Nation will endure as it has endured, will revive and will prosper. So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself–nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. In every dark hour of our national life a leadership of frankness and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves, which is essential to victory. I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days. In such a spirit on my part and on yours we face our common difficulties. They concern, thank God, only material things. Values have shrunken to fantastic levels; taxes have risen; our ability to pay has fallen; government of all kinds is faced by serious curtailment of income; the means of exchange are frozen in the currents of trade; the withered leaves of industrial enterprise lie on every side; farmers find no markets for their produce; the savings of may years in thousands of families are gone. More important, a host of unemployed citizens face the grim problem of existence and an equally great number toil with little return. Only a foolish optimist can deny the dark realities of the moment. Yet our distress comes from no failure of substance. We are stricken by no plague of locusts. Compared with the perils which our forefathers conquered because they believed and were not afraid, we have still much to be thankful for. Nature still offers her bounty and human efforts have multiplied it. Plenty is at our doorstep, but a generous use of it languishes in the very sight of the supply. Primarily this is because the rulers of the exchange of mankind's goods have failed, through their own stubbornness and their own incompetence, have admitted their failure, and abdicated. Practices of the unscrupulous moneychangers stand indicted in the court of public opinion, rejected by the hearts and minds of men. What is the goal of his speech?

To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 9 Important Quotes Please find the quotes and identify the speaker and why it's important. Quotations 1. "I maintain that the Ewells started it all, but Jem, who was four years my senior, said it started long before that. He said it began the summer Dill came to us, when Dill first gave us the idea of making Boo Radley come out." (3) 2. "Maycomb was an old town, but it was a tired old town when I first knew it." (6) 3. "The Cunninghams never took anything they can't pay back – no church baskets and no scrip stamps. They never took anything off of anybody, they get along on what they have. They don't have much, but they get along on it." (Chp. 2, p.26) 4. "You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view--. . . -- until you climb into his skin and walk around in it." (Chp. 3, p. 39) 5. "'Haven't you ever walked along a lonesome road at night and passed by a hot place?' 'A Hot Steam's somebody who can't et to heaven, just wallows around on lonesome roads an' if you walk through him, when you die you'll be one too an' you'll go around at night suckin' people's breath –" (Chp. 4 p.49) 6. "You are too young to understand it, ... but sometimes the Bible in the hand of one man is worse than a whiskey bottle in the hand of--oh, of your father." (Chp. 5, p. 45) 7. "There are just some kind of men who--who're so busy worrying about the next world they've never learned to live in this one, and you can look down the street and see the results." (45) 8. "Atticus Finch is the same in his house as he is on the public streets." (p.46) ' To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 10 9. "The main one is, if I didn't I couldn't hold up my head in town. I couldn't even represent this county in legislature, I couldn't even tell you or Jem not to do something again" (Chp. 9, p. 75) 10. "Simply because we were licked a hundred years before we started is no reason for us not totry to win." (76) 11. "When a child asks you something, answer him, for goodness' sake. But don't make a production of it. Children are children, but they can spot an evasion quicker than adults, and evasion simply muddles 'em." (Cp. 9, 87) 12. "Your father's right, Mockingbirds don't do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don't' eat up people's gardens, don't nest in corncribs, they don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That's why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird" (Chp. 10, 90) 13. "You're lucky, you know. You and Jem have the benefit of your father's age. If your father was thirty you'd find life quite different." (90) 14. Maybe I can tell you. If your father's anything, he's civilized in his heart. Marksmanship's a gift of God, a talent – oh, you have to practice to make it perfect, but shootin's different from playing the piano or the like. I think maybe he put his gun down when he realized that God had given him an unfair advantage over most living things. I guess he decided he wouldn't shoot till he had to, and he had to today. . . . People in their right minds never take pride in their talents" (98) 15. "The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience." (Chp. 11, 105) 16. "I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It's when you know you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do." (112) To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 11 17. "It's not necessary to tell all you know. It's not lady-like--in the second place, folks don't like to have somebody around knowin' more than they do. It aggravates 'em." (Cp. 12, 126) 18. "I know now what he was trying to do, but Atticus was only a man. It takes a woman to do that kind of work." (Chp. 13, p. 134) 19. "I'll tell him you said hey, little lady." (Mr. Cunningham to Scout) (Chp. 15, p. 154) 20. "In Maycomb, grown men stand outside in the front yard for only two reasons: death & politics" (p. 193) 21. "A mob is always made up of people no matter what." (210) 22. "People generally see what they look for and hear what they listen for, and they have a right to subject their children to it." (233) 23. "I try to give 'em a reason, you see. It helps folks if they can latch onto a reason." (Chp. 19, p. 200) 24. "Cry about what, Mr. Raymond?" "Cry about the simple hell people give other people-- without even thinking." (Chp. 19, p. 201) 25. "I don't know, but they did it. They've done it before and they did it tonight and they'll do it again and when they do it-- seems that only children weep. Good night." (Chp. 22, p. 213) 26. "It's like bein' a caterpillar in a cocoon, that's what it is," he said. "Like somethin' asleep wrapped up in a warm place." (Jem about being a child in Maycomb) (p. 215) To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 12 27. "There ain't one thing in this world I can do about folks except laugh, so I'm gonna join the circus and laugh my head off." "You got it backwards, Dill," said Jem. "Clowns are sad, it's folks that laugh at them." "Well, I'm gonna be a new kind of clown. I'm gonna stand in the middle of the ring and laugh at the folks. Just looks yonder," he pointed. "Every one of 'em oughta be ridin' broomsticks." (p. 216) 28. "Serving on a jury forces a man to make up his mind and declare himself about something. Men don't like to do that. Sometimes it's unpleasant." 29. "I guess Tom was tired of a white men's chances and preferred to take his own." (236) 30. "They're perfectly willing to let him do what they're too afraid to do themselves – it might lose 'em a nick. They're perfectly willing to let him wreck his health doing what they're afraid to do, they're . . ." (236) 31. "Jem how can you hate Hitler so bad an' then turn around and be ugly about folks right at home--" (Chp. 26, p. 247) 32. "Let the dead bury the dead this time, Mr. Finch." (Chp. 30, p. 276) 33. "Well, it'd be sort of like shootin' a mocking bird, wouldn't it?" (276) 34. "Atticus was right. One time he said you never really know a man until you stand in his shoes and walk around in them. Just standing on the Radley porch was enough." (Chp. 31, 279) 35. "Atticus, he was real nice." "Most people are, Scout, when you finally see them."

Chapter 1 Activity In small groups, discuss what you notice about the town of Maycomb, specifically; what is apparent about the different families, the pace of the town, and the racial divisions? List what you notice, making references to the text. Next, discuss how each item on your list may influence the story and add an element of verisimilitude. Write your comments beside each item. Be prepared to present your list and commentary to the class. Come up with a list of 5 things: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 15 Part II: Mood A. In addition to providing information about time and place, physical descriptions of a place can create a feeling in the reader by setting a mood for the story. How would you describe the feeling or mood set by Harper Lee in the beginning of the book? What specific words contribute to the mood? "Maycomb was an old town, but it was a tired old town when I first knew it. In rainy weather the streets turned to red slop; grass grew on the sidewalks, the courthouse sagged in the square. Somehow, it was hotter then: a black dog suffered on a summer's day; bony mules hitched to Hoover carts flicked flies in the sweltering shade of the live oaks on the square. Men's stiff collars wilted by nine in the morning. Ladies bathed before noon, after their three-o'-clock naps, and by nightfall were like soft teacakes with frostings of sweat and sweet talcum. People moved slowly then. They ambled across the square, shuffled in and out of the stores around it, took their time about everything. A day was twenty-four hours long but seemed longer. There was no hurry, for there was nowhere to go, nothing to buy and no money to buy it with, nothing to see outside the boundaries of Maycomb County. But it was a time of vague optimism for some of the people: Maycomb County had recently been told that it had nothing to fear but fear itself." B. Think of a neighborhood with which you are very familiar. Describe that neighborhood and, in your description, try to set a mood. The mood you strive to create could be one of boredom, excitement, or any other emotional feeling. To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 16 Chapter 1 1. Who is the narrator of this novel? 2.

To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 21 Mood Activity Descriptive writing uses words to create visual images. Notice in the following paragraph that we are able to see Miss Maudie and Scout sitting on the porch, as well as the sky and birds they observe. Through the use of specific details, the writer conveys a mood, an image, and imagery. "In summertime, twilights are long and peaceful. Often as not, Miss Maudie and I would sit silently on her porch, watching the sky go from yellow to pink as the sun went down, watching flights of martins sweep low over the neighborhood and disappear behind the schoolhouse rooftops." As you read, record any passages from the text that you feel are rich in both visualizing an image and mood. On the right side of the chart, identify the mood or feeling the excerpt conveys to the reader. Chart Descriptive Images that Convey Mood ______________________________________________________________________________ Description Identify Mood/Feeling/Sense Emphasized ______________________________________________________________________________ "Summer was our best season: it was sleeping on the back screened porch in cots, or trying to sleep in the treehouse; summer was everything good to eat; it was a thousand colors in a parched landscape; but most of all summer was Dill." ______________________________________________________________________________ "Ground, sky and houses melted into a mad palette, my ears throbbed, I was suffocating. could not put out my hands to stop, they were wedged between my chest and knees." ______________________________________________________________________________ "Every night sound I heard from my cot on the back porch was magnified three-fold; every scratch of feet on gravel was Boo Radley seeking revenge, every passing Negro laughing in the night was Boo Radley loose and after us; insects splashing against the screen were Boo Radley's insane fingers picking the wire to pieces; the chinaberry trees were malignant, hovering, alive. I lingered between sleep and wakefulness until I heard Jem murmur." ______________________________________________________________________________ "The moon was setting and the lattice-work shadows were fading into fuzzy nothingness. Jem's white shirt-tail dipped and bobbed like a small ghost dancing away to escape the coming morning. A faint breeze stirred and cooled the sweat running down my sides."

Character Chart: In order to follow the intermingling of the characters in the small Maycomb community of To Kill a Mockingbird, you will be creating a character flow chart (see example below) which illustrates the connections they share. Taking all of the characters from the novel, you will create a chart, detailing the description of each character, the major role they play in the story, and using color-coded lines, the ways in which they interconnect. Follow the steps below when creating your chart: To Kill a Mockingbird: Mrs. Kitze-Ward Page 32 • On an 8 ½" x 11" sheet of paper write all of the characters in the story from the attached pages. • Spread them out so that you have plenty of room for drawing arrows and filling in the important details of each relationship • Draw arrows connecting each character as they relate to other characters. Then, along each of the arrow lines, fill in all the details of each particular relationship. • Write a brief description of each character. • Draw or find pictures from the Internet or from magazines that represent each character. There are plenty of sites and magazines where you can find pictures of people to use. • Create a system of color-coding your chart lines to help in understanding the different relationships. (How you do this is up to you to decide—example topics: family connections, friend connections, professional connections, enemy connections, etc.) • Remember, as always, the key is to be as neat as possible.

Scout Finch (aka Jean Louise Finch): The narrator of the novel, Jean Louise "Scout" Finch is almost six years old at the time her story begins.
