Demonstrating Understanding of Jem's Development One way to demonstrate understanding of character and theme is by writing from the perspective of a character. For this assignment, compose a short poem from the perspective of Jem. Your poem should detail his feelings about either a. his father, Atticus or b. Mrs. Dubose. The poem must accurately trace the progression of Jem's attitudes and beliefs, highlighting the important events and shifts in his perspective detailed above. Your writing should also sound like Jem, using voice and word choice that reflects the voice and word choice found in the novel. The poem can be a free poem (meaning it does not need to rhyme or follow a particular format). It should be a minimum of twenty-lines in length, have a title, and follow conventional rules of spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

this poem is good and it’s the right answer

Explanation:

Because I did the test myself

.

Explanation:

From morning to morning, I wonder

Is this the freedom and fraternity that we have built?

Have we really evolved?

Or was evolution just biological and does not extend to social issues?

From childhood to youth

From youth to adulthood

Will I be able to honor the example you set for me?

You seem very fair to this world

Be able to not corrupt your teachings and practice justice

Even within injustice?

But you are so centered and incorruptible

An example to follow

But society corrupts us

and I don't know how to resist.

But I know what you told me

and admire you without blinking

But I feel lost

Hopeless to disclose.

question:

it's when i'm weary of considerations, and life is too much like a pathless wood where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs broken across it, and one eye is weeping from a twig's having lashed across it open

answer to question #2: in this text we can understand that the word frost could mean anger, annoyance and bitterness, due to the fact that the person is stating that he/she is feeling weary of considerations and compares life to a pathless wood.

explanation: the word frost means coldness and something covered by ice crystals but looking at the comparison made in this text, we can understand that the word frost could mean anger, annoyance and bitterness, due to the fact that the person is stating that he/she is feeling weary of considerations therefore he/she compares life to a pathless wood.
