Who is Calpurnia? What is her place in the Finch household?
Calpurnia is the Finch's cook. Calpurnia is viewed as the mother figure to the kids after their mother's death.
What is Walter Cunningham like? What does his behaviour during lunch suggest about his home life?
A boy who lives on a farm, he has lice and is poor, very poor, he doesn't take anything unless he can some how give it back in return.
What do you think of the way Atticus treats Walter?
He knows Walter's life at home so he lets Walter drown his food in syrup and respects his father.
Does Scout learn anything from Walter's visit? What do you think this is?
That all company are guests and you shouldn't be disrespectful in anyway toward a guest.
Atticus says that you never really understand a person “until you climb into his skin and walk around in it”. What does this mean? Is it an easy thing for Scout to learn? (In the last chapter of the novel, Scout repeats this, but she changes “skin” to “shoes” - this is probably not a mistake: Harper Lee suggests that Scout cannot clearly recall exactly what Atticus said and when, but the reader can check this!)
You need to experience something in a different point of view. That your way of looking at it is simply easier and more likely to not show the full understanding.
What do you learn in this chapter about the Ewells?
The family is given special cases, lives by the dump(close to the forest), there are many of them and they act as if animals.
