“Miss Caroline told me to tell my father not to teach me anymore, it would interfere with my reading”.
Scout was confused as to why Miss Caroline assumed that Atticus was teaching her when in fact he wasn’t. She was also confused because she didn’t understand why her teacher didn’t want to to learn even more. Even more conflict was started when Scout told Miss Caroline about the Cunninghams not taking handouts. Scout of course was confused why Miss Caroline got mad and hit her hands with a ruler and sent her to the corner. When everyone was laughing Miss Caroline threatened them with the same fate but that only made them laugh more, it wasn’t until Miss Blount yelled at them that they finally quieted down. As Scout was exiting the classroom
