Final answer:

Scout does not get in trouble for fighting with Burris Ewell on the first day of school; instead, she clashes with her teacher over Walter Cunningham and Burris Ewell's incident is a separate event. It is false that Scout's trouble on the first day is related to Burris.

Step-by-step explanation:

In To Kill a Mockingbird, it is false that Scout gets in trouble on the first day of school by fighting with Burris Ewell.

The character Scout actually gets into trouble for her interactions with Miss Caroline Fisher, her teacher, regarding Walter Cunningham, and the Ewell incident occurs separately when Burris Ewell attends school for only one day and causes a commotion in the classroom. Scout's disputes on her first day of school are centered around her ability to read and write, which her teacher disapproves of because it disrupts her educational plans.
