How can I support Atticus' lesson to"climb into his skin and walk around in it" to Scout in Chpt 3/To Kill a Mockingbird? Don't write an essay for...

If, as it seems to be indicated, the essay needs to be
concerned about actions limited from Chapters 1 to 3, then perhaps you can develop what
Scout herself says:

Atticus said I learned many things today, and
Miss Caroline had learned several things
herself.



Scout continues,
declaring that Miss Caroline has learned not to hand something to a Cunningham--which
Scout tried to tell her.  But, Scout reflects, had she been Miss Caroline, she would not
have known not to do what she did.


So, reviewing the first
day of school from inside the skin of Miss Caroline presents several obstacles:  She
does not know anyone, she knows nothing about their way of life, and she is new at
teaching.


Placing the focus of your essay on being inside
Miss Caroline's skin, as Atticus's metaphor describes taking on a different perspective,
may be the direction in which to go since supporting details can be gleaned from the
chapters previous to Chapter Three.
