Question:
Write about Scout's education in 'To Kill A Mockingbird'
Write about:
What she learns from different people and events.
How the writer shows Scout's education.
Answer:
Scout is a very clever girl for her age. She seems to understand some thing that adults don’t. But she does act her age most of the times.
At the start of the story until about the end of the novel Scout did not realised that there was people around her that were a different colour specially Calpurnia. She only realised Calpurnia was a different colour from her when Calpurnia took Scout and Jem to the church with her and then started acting and speaking differently with her friends which were also a different colour as Calpurnia. Scout then found out that Calpurnia had to change the way she acts because then she would be seen in a different way and had to speak different so that her friends would understand what she was saying as Calpurnia was educated by Scout's grandfather and the rest of her friends were not.
