I just picked up SS the other day and started reading, a couple of
questions came to me. 

1) SO the students go to Hogwarts to learn magical stuff BUT what
about the basics, math, reading, writing etc? I know that the
Muggle-borns like Harry would have gone to regular school but what
about the children brought up in the Wizarding homes? I hope that made
sense...

2) Why is there no sort of ruckus when Hagrid does magic in the hut?
He gives Dudley a tail and makes a fire. Why was that not noticed by
the ministry? And in keeping with that question....why didn't Lilly
get in trouble when she came home and turned teacups into gerbils or
w/e it was Petunia said. 

Ok I'm done for now. I never seem to make my questions make any sense
so anyone that can help thx.
