What are the settings for each chapter of Hoot?

Since an educator has already provided you with the plots of each chapter , I will just concentrate on settings for those chapters.

Chapter One: Events occur on Roy's school bus, a future site of Mother Paula's All-American Pancake House, and the cafeteria at Trace Middle School. All three locations are in Coconut Cove, Florida.


Chapter Two: Events occur on Roy's school bus, a golf course, vice-principal Viola Hennepin's cubicle office at Trace Middle School, and the school cafeteria.


Chapter Three: Events occur at the same construction site from Chapter One, Roy's home, and the Coconut Cove police station.


Chapter Four: Events occur at Trace Middle School, the construction site, the Trace Middle School cafeteria, and the outside of Dana Matherson's house.


Chapter Five: Events occur at Roy's home, a camp-site in the pine woods, and the same golf course from Chapter Two.


Chapter Six: Events occur at Roy's home, the Coconut Cove police station, the golf course, and briefly, the construction site.


Chapter Seven: Events occur at a junkyard full of wrecked cars (where Roy finally discovers that Mullet Fingers is Beatrice's brother), Officer Delinko's squad car, and Roy's home.


Chapter Eight: Events occur at Roy's home, the school bus, and the construction site.


Chapter Nine: The main events occur at Trace Middle School (specifically in the classroom and the janitor's closet, where Dana beats up Roy).

Chapter Thirteen: The main events occur at Roy's home. Here, Roy's father discusses the burrowing owls and Mullet Finger's family situation with Roy. Later, Roy's mother reiterates her faith in Roy's judgment.


Chapter Fourteen: The main events occur at Beatrice's home, Dana Matherson's home, the panel truck at the junkyard (where Mullet Fingers sleeps at night), and an old stone-crab boat called the Molly Bell, where Mullet Fingers tells Roy how he got his nickname and why his relationship with his mother is strained.
