Miss Ewell thinks Atticus Finch is making fun of her.

Why does she think that?

How is Mayella similar to a "mixed" child?

Atticus asked Tom Robinson to stand when Mayella Ewell identified him as the man who attacked her.

What did everyone notice about Tom when he stood up?

In contrast to Mayella's testimony, what does Atticus suggest happened to her?

The judge calls for a ten&#45minute break, but no one seems to be going to the bathroom, Scout notices. "I guess Mr. Heck Tate had reserved the county toilet for the court officials."
