Crawl in Someone Else's Skin: Point of View Exercise

Please write an account of one of the events in chapters 1-3 from a point of view other than Scout's. Keep the facts of the event the same. You should be speaking from the mind of another character (what are they thinking?). Think of this as a diary entry from that character's point of view. You can choose from the following episodes:

Dinner at the Finch house (from Walter's perspective)
Burris Ewell (from Miss Caroline's perspective)
Scout explains to Atticus why she'd rather not go to school (from Atticus' perspective)
Scout explains the Cunningham family (from Miss Caroline's point of view)
The confrontation with Burris (from Miss Caroline's point of view)
One of your own choosing (from a character other than Scout's point of view).

This requires you to go back into the text and familiarize yourself with the events as they are seen through the narrator's eyes. Then you must decide how the other character might feel in the situation.
