Boo helps the Finch kids a couple of times in these chapters. The first time he helped them was when dill, Jem and scout were trying to get away from the Redley's house, after they snuck over there. On Jem's way out he was struggling to get under the fence and lost his pants. He told Atticus he had lost the playing poker and he would get them back from dill. That night he decides to go get his pants back but instead of them being in a waded up mess stuck in the fence they were nicely folded on the outside of the fence as if they expected him to come back and get them. they were also all sewed up and fixed but not very well like a lady would do it . the second example is when Boo gave scout and jem the blanket during the fire when it was snowing outside. I think he helps in these situations to almost kinda prove tho them that he is actually nice unlike what people say. This is an example of the theme appearance vs. reality because boo seems mean and scary but is really kind.

Author "Boo" Radley has helped the Finch children more than once, but in the chapters we see Jem go to the Radley place and get scared off by a shotgun and he loses his pants. Mr. Radley supposedly finds them, cleans them, and even sows them knowing that Jem would come back for them, and he does. One thing that confuses me about these chapters is, why are the kids so obsessed with Mr. Radley even though they see him pretty much every day and even talk to him at times. Another kind thing that Mr. Radley kid for the kids is while the fire was engulfing Miss Maudie's house, Arthur wrapped a blanket around Scout to keep her from getting too cold. This REALLY portrays Appearance vs Reality because everyone thinks that Mr. Radley is a mean awful person, but we see him going out of his way to help a child. At the end of chapter 8 we see some behavior by Miss. Maudie that can be foreshadowing.

Boo Radley has helped the children when he sewed Jem's pants and put them nicely over the fence for Jem to get so he wouldn't be in trouble with Atticus. He also helped when the fire was burning down Miss Maudie's house and the fire department had to water down all the houses in the neighborhood. Since it was cold, he took a blanket and put it over Scout's shoulders to keep her warmer. I think Boo helped the kids because he enjoyed watching them play "Radley" that summer, and because he is really a nice man who wants the best for others. It shows the theme of appearance vs. reality because Mr. Radley looks like a mean old man who did something wrong since he hides in his house, but in reality he is very nice and just enjoys keeping to himself.

1. Colton Paulson - Period 3 2. Boo Radley decides to help the Finch children in two ways. One of them is when Dill, Jem, and Scout try to get a look at Boo Radley by looking through one of their windows. Nathan Radley shot in the air to scare off what he thought was an African American. While the kids were running away, Jem's pants got caught in the fence so he tore them off and kept running. Later, when Jem came back to get them, Boo had stitched them back together and folded them up. Another way Boo helped them was when Scout and Jem were sitting outside the Radley's house watching Miss Maudie's house that was on fire, Scout was getting really cold. So, Boo quietly came out and put a blanket on her without her noticing. I think he chooses to help them because he wants to be friendly with them. I think he is tired of being alone. 4. I didn't find anything confusing in these chapters 5. Appearance vs Reality comes up because no one expects Boo to ever help anyone, but he does 6. We can foreshadow that the kids and Boo Radley are going to interact with each other in the future

one of the times that boo helps the children is when Jem loses his pants at his house, boo should of been angry but instead he patched up the pants and he folded them neatly again so that Jem could get them back. The second time is when he puts a blanket on scout I think this means that later in the story boo will help jem and scout even more.It means that even though boo looks like he is crazy and mean he is actually a good person.

Boo Radley helps Scout and Jem more then once in these chapters. Once when Miss Maudie's house caught on fire, he helped Scout by giving her a blanket even though she didn't notice him. He knew she was cold. Another time Boo helped was when the Finch kids, and Dill were in the Radleys yard when Nathan Radley shot. They ran away but Jem's pants got stuck on the fence and ripped off. Boo took the pants and fixed them. I think he did this because he was trying to prove the rumors wrong. To show people that he wasn't a monster and that he wasn't truly what was said about him. Also I think he helped because he wanted a friend. He was lonely. He enjoys the Finch kids. At first, the part when he helps Scout, I skipped a page so I didn't get it, but I went back and re-read. This is an example of Appearance vs. Reality. Eveveryone thinks Boo is such a scary, awful person when in reality he is lonely, and helpful. He helped the Finch kids on his own will and didn't even bother making it known. A literary element would be foreshadowing. Around the end of the chapters the kids start to realize it is Boo who helped them. This foreshadows that Boo might help them later on in the book.

Boo Radley has helped the Finch children on two separate occasions. The first is when Jem, Scout and Dill snuck in the fence at the Radley's to spy. When they tried to leave, Jem's pants got stuck in the fence. He left them there, and told Atticus a lie. When he came back, they were sewn up. We know it was Boo because they could tell the stitching was a women's, since it was crooked.Boo had helped her and, he saved Jem from getting in trouble. Another occasion Boo Radley helped the Finch children is the night of the fire. Scout and Jem were standing back away from the fire, which happened to be in front of the Radley's. Scout was very cold, because it was 2am and sixteen degree's out. When they later got home, (pg. 95)Atticus noticed a blanket on her. He knew Boo had given it to her. He had helped her but giving her warmth to stay warm when it was cold outside. I think Boo helped the Finch's because he was lonely. He has had no outside connection for a long time, and is restricted. He kept himself occupied by doing this. Also, I think he did this to show he is not who they think he is. They depict him as cruel, wild, and mean. When really, he is very nice. He just doesn't have the chance to prove himself. This goes along with appearance vs. reality. The kids think boo is scary and freaky, because these are the rumors they heard and believed. But reality is, he is a caring person, who is very kindhearted. He showed how he appears is nothing similar to who he really is, but these rumors make it impossible for people to see. 4. The one thing i found confusing is; why would Mr. Radley fill up the knot, and say the tree was dead? 5. Appearance vs. Reality comes in because they see how Boo is actually very nice and kind-rather then before the saw him as the rumors described him. 6. Foreshadow-be a warning or indication of (a future event). I say this because after these kind gestures by Boo it changes the story, because they know he is nice and the rumors are false.

Boo helped the kids in two ways, When the kids were in the Radley backyard looking for Arthur, Nathan Radley shot in the air trying to scare the kids away. When the kids were running away jems pants got stuck on the fence and they had gotten torn up, the way Boo helped was he too the pants and tried to fix them as best he could and he put them back up on the fence. The next example was when The kids were standing in front of the Radley's house when Miss Maudie's house was on fire. Boo had put a blanket around Scout's shoulders. When this happened the children then realized that Boo wasn't a bad guy at all and they shouldn't believe what other people say and they shouldn't judge him anymore on his looks. I think Boo helps them because he's trying to show the kids that he's actually a pretty nice guy and they shouldn't be scared of him and what it means in terms of themes for the story I'd say it's appearance vs. reality because they think Boo is a bad guy buy in reality he's actually nice. And I didn't find anything confusing about the chapters.
