The Radley Game (SK's class)

Why do the children play the “Radley Game”?

 I believe the children played the Radley game simply because of their fascination with the Radley family. 

      This game provides a way for the children to explore the stories they have heard about the Radley's and find the missing pieces to the puzzle of the Radley's life. As well, its another way for them to answer the continuing question they have about the Radley's." What they didn't know they filled in with their imagination, " It was a melancholy little drama, woven from bits and scraps of gossip and neighbourhood legend..." and from what they had heard from neighbours and friends.  For Jem and Dill, who grew closer as time went on, it became a investment. The game they had created was one way for them to pass the long hours of the summer. 

   

      So in conclusion to the question I think the children played the game to learn more about the Radley's and to pass time.
