Miss Caroline (their teacher) didn't know anything about this town or the Cunningtons, so Scout was just informing Miss Caroline the way Walter and the Cunningtons live.
Atticus Finch intervenes and stops Scout from beating up Walter Cunningham during lunch at school. He reminds Scout of the importance of empathy and understanding others' situations before judging or acting aggressively.
Scout had tried to come to Walter Cunningham's aid when the teacher did not understand why Walter had no lunch and why he refused money to buy lunch. But Scout cannot tell details of what she knows; she does say the teacher is making Walter feel ashamed. The teacher does not appreciate that comment! So she punishes Scout, and the class laughs. Scout beats up Walter because he got her in trouble.
Jem and Scout got in a fist fight , not Atticus and Scout.
Because she got in trouble for exposing why Walter didn't wanna take ms.Caroline's money

Scout beats up Walter because he indirectly embarrasses her by pouring syrup all over his lunch. She is frustrated and takes out her anger on him, not understanding the full significance of his actions.
When the family goes to Aunt Alexandra's for Christmas, Scout hits Francis for calling Atticus a"nigger-lover". On Scout's first day of school she beats up Walter Cunningham because he made her look bad in front of their teacher. He didn't have lunch and Scout had to explain why. The teacher got made at Scout, so Scout got mad at Walter.
Scout feels Walter is of a lower social class than she is. She mistreats him because he is poorer than she is. Scout fells that Walter is unequal to her. also she questions on why she rubbed his nose in the dirt. Scout feels Walter is of a lower social class than she is.

Scout blames Walter Cunningham for what happened to her when she defended him. Miss Caroline slaps Scout with a ruler a dozen times and told her to stand in the corner. Scout is embarrassed, and later on she beats him up. Hope that helped. :)
Miss. Caroline whipps Scout with a ruler on the hand, which is basicly tapping scouts hand with a ruler only harder.

In "To Kill a Mockingbird," Scout diffused a potentially violent situation by talking to Walter Cunningham and reminding him of their connection and shared experiences, ultimately appealing to his humanity. By treating Walter with kindness and empathy, Scout was able to break the tension and prevent any harm from coming to her father, Atticus.
