    6) What satirical points are being made about education through Scout's experiences in school? I feel a major satirical point about Scout’s education is the fact that she is ridiculed for learning some place other than school. It’s as if her teacher feels Scout is messing her learning system. She is "introducing a new way of teaching" one which involves the teacher waving cards at the students with simple words printed on them. Scout begins to write a letter, which the teacher stops her from doing. She also is angry at Scout for writing, because "you don't learn to write until you're in the third grade. Obviously, she is stopping her from learning more. School is now a place where Scout is told to stop learning.…

    Maycomb County is a town filled with mostly friendly people. They are very close to each other and know everyone well; this is proven as Scout is quoted saying “no one needs introduction while talking in the phone, in Maycomb everyone knows everyone else’s voices well enough”. Their closeness might be reasoned from their ever-recurring social activities such as such as what is faced by Atticus who is “related by blood or marriage to nearly every family in the town” Besides that, they are very cooperative and help each other whenever problems arise. This shown when Miss Maudie's house catches on fire, as the onomatopoeia “muffled scurrying sounds” gives the idea that everyone in the neighbourhood (including Mr Nathan Radley who very seldom mingles with others) wakes up from their midnight sleep to help to save Miss Maudie’s belongings and to put out the fire. From here, it is very obvious that the strong relationship of the people in Maycomb County leads them to be very sociable and helpful people. But on the other hand Maycomb has its bad points too. They also face “Maycomb’s usual disease”, which is prejudice. Their closest prejudice victim’ is Boo Radley, who is shunned from the society just because he is very different from them a very mysterious and reclusive man. As they had never really known anything about Boo, they spread bad stories and rumours about him. Things are worst when any small crimes done in…

    Even though he is her brother, he is also her best friend, and they get along better than Scout does with any of the kids at school. As Susan McHale stated, “Like friends, siblings are a focus of free time activities in childhood, but they also share family-centered activities such as meals and outings” (McHale). Jem may be Scout’s brother, but he has just as big of an impact on her life and growth as any other person in or out of Maycomb. He can get annoyed with her presence, but he loves her greatly and enjoys how she looks up to him, even if he doesn’t show it that often. She is fascinated by his knowledge, though sometimes his attempts at being authoritative drive her crazy. She also enjoys being with him, and his presence is comforting to her when she is afraid. For example, she is excited the next year of school because, “The only thing good about the second grade was that this year I had to stay as late as Jem, and we usually walked home together at three o’clock” (Lee 77). She appreciated him near, and she also owes him her life. If it weren’t for Jem, then she may never have gotten the nerve up to go close to the Radley house or have been protected when Mr. Ewell attacked them. No matter the time or place, Jem has always been there for Scout and has made a massive impact on her life.…
