From the text:

1) Miss Caroline told me to tell my father not to teach me any more, it would interfere with my reading.

Scout was literate..... something that bothered her teacher.

If I could have explained these things to Miss Caroline, I would have saved myself some inconvenience and Miss Caroline subsequent mortification, but it was beyond my ability to explain things as well as Atticus, so I said, “You’re shamin‘ him, Miss Caroline. Walter hasn’t got a quarter at home to bring you, and you can’t use any stovewood.”

Miss Caroline stood stock still, then grabbed me by the collar and hauled me back to her desk. “Jean Louise, I’ve had about enough of you this morning,” she said. “You’re starting off on the wrong foot in every way, my dear. Hold out your hand.”

Acout corrected Miss Caroline in order to save Walter humiliation..... Miss Caroline didn;t like being corrected.

Please post your questions separately.
