My First Day of School

          Today was my first day of first grade and it did not go well for me. My teacher is Miss Caroline; she is about 21 years old and brought a new way of teaching to the school. She does not like me at all because my father Atticus Finch taught me how read. Also, Calpurnia our cook taught me how to write and that angered my teacher Miss Caroline. I decided I do not want to go back to school but I am being forced to.

 

 

          Today went terribly wrong for me. I tried to explain why Walter Cunningham Jr. could not take the money Miss Caroline offered to him. This got me into a humongous amount of trouble with Miss Caroline. She whipped me with a ruler in front of all of my classmates. I tried to make Walter eat the dirt on the floor because he got me into trouble. However my brother Jem invited him over for lunch so I got into more trouble at home.
