__**Chapter 3: **__

**1. Analyze the events during lunch**


 * First, Jem told Calpuria to set an extra plate on the table. They all sat down and Atticus greeted Walter.
 *  During the Dinner, Walter and Atticus talked about various subjects while Jem and Scout didn’t really talk much. Atticus treated Walter like an adult and Walter also acted like one.
 *  Walter then put syrup all over his dinner and Scout told him not to eat like that.
 *  This is when Calpurnia called Scout into the kitchen and scolded her for telling him. She said that Walter was their guest and he could do eat however he wanted.
 *  Scout said that she was only a Cunningham but Calpernia told her not to act like their family was better than anyone elses.
 *  Dinner ended with Scout having to eat in the kitchen


**2. Character description and analysis of Burris Ewell and his family**


 * Burris Ewell had been going to the first day of school for three years, but this year he was extremely mean to Miss Caroline, made her cry, and then walked out.
 * The Ewell family is lazy and doesn’t work, they get by and the kids raise themselves without any discipline or education.
 * Physically, Burris is lazy, dirty and a poor boy. He is so poor and gross a cootie crawled out of his head during school showing the way his parents do not care and work hard to be a good example for there kids. The family does not give an effort to try to make Burris be educated and look as if he is somewhat presentable.

** 3. What is the significance of Atticus accepting Walter? How does he show this? **


 * This is significant because Atticus is teaching Scout to accept others not based on how much money you have, but by what kind of person you are.
 * Atticus treats Walter like an adult, allowing mature conversation to flow and to teach Scout to be respectful of others.
 * Atticus focuses on what Walter’s father does to make him feel comfortable in their home and to not put him out of place, creating a warm, homelike environment for Walter.

**4. List Atticus's Lessons - Be sure you include the biggest lesson of the entire book.**
