In To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee Miss Maudie and Calpurnia have many similarities. Both Miss Maudie and Calpurnia have been there for Scout when Jem and Dill excluded her. Miss Maudie would let Scout hang out with her by just talking, looking at the sky, and planting. Calpurnia did the same think because when Jem and Dill excluded Scout she let Scout bake with her, and learn. Another similarity is they both have that polite and mature diction when they talk to anyone, besides when Calpurnia talks to the African Americans at the church.
Miss Maudie and Calpurnia also have many differences. A difference is Miss Maudie goes to a white church, and Calpurnia goes to the African and poor church. Basically a reason they are different is because they come from different races. Another reason they are different is beause Calpurnia works for Atticus, but Miss Maudie doesn't work for him nor is she part of the family.
Miss Maudie and Calupurnia have affected Scout in some way. Miss Maudie has affected Scout by being there for her when she was being left out, which made Scout feel better about Jem and Dill excluding her. Calpurnia affected Scout because she brought her to her church, which showed Scout segregation and how it is not right.
Miss Maudie and Calpurnia both have a type of relationship with Scout. Miss Maudie's relationship would be a good friend, that is a girl, since most of Scout's friends are boys (Dill and Jem). Then I see Calpurnia as the feminine influence for Scout, like stated in Chapter ten. I would think that Calpurnia is closer with Scout since she has been there since the beggining.
Hi Evie. Nice blog, I like how you seperated the similarities and differences into different paragraphs instead of the same. One thing that I noticed was in the first sentence, it was kind of confusing to where I had to reread the sentence. Another thing is in this sentence, "Calpurnia did the same think because when Jem and Dill..." I think you were trying to write thing instead of think. The last thing is, I think you should had textual evidence for support. Otherwise you did a really good job, and happy early birthday!
