The book starts off by telling about Juniors life and what it's like to be an Indian at the place he lives (The Reservation). One of the early conflicts in the book is that Junior wants to make a better life for himself and the only way he can do that is if he leaves the reservation and if he does that he feels that he will be disrespecting his people because he will be going to a white school. The rising action of the book is that when he does decide to go to the white school he struggles to fit in and figure out how to make friends at his new school and he also struggles with trying to keep his best friend Rowdy from his old school. The climax of the book is when Junior experiences three tragic deaths in rapid succession, his grandmother, family friend, Eugene, and his sister Mary all die. For Junior, Mary’s death is the most traumatic. The falling action is when Junior’s family mourns the recent deaths of loved ones and Junior completes a successful first year at Reardan, the Spokane community seems to realize it has treated Junior unfairly, and Junior finds unsuspected support among the new friends he has made at Reardan. The resolution is when he makes everything go right at school by becoming the most popular person. Everything in the end goes his way because through hard work and effort he sets things right. ]]> 2018-01-10 14:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220165424 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220173494 Junior, Arnold Spirit, Rowdy, Mary Spirit, Mr. and Mrs. Spirit, Grandmother Spirit, Gordy, Penelope, Roger, Eugene, Mr. P, Billionaire Ted, Coach]]> 2018-01-10 14:30:24 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220173494 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220176734 Symbolism: The reservation was a symbol of the hard life of Indians.
Foreshadowing: When Juniors sister took off without letting anyone know she was going to. It just kinda had that vibe that something was going to go wrong with her.]]> 2018-01-10 14:35:02 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220176734 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220178987 2018-01-10 14:38:21 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220178987 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220179591 2018-01-10 14:39:14 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220179591 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220180950 2018-01-10 14:41:18 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220180950 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220181095 2018-01-10 14:41:33 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220181095 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220181859 2018-01-10 14:42:47 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220181859 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220182942 2018-01-10 14:44:17 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220182942 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220183652 Can you relate to this story or know any one that does relate to this story? ]]> 2018-01-10 14:45:22 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220183652 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220184506 What kind of problems do you face in your everyday life? Do you think your life is harder that Juniors?]]> 2018-01-10 14:46:51 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220184506 2010024 https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220185554 I feel as if Poverty is the most important theme in the story because the author shows that poverty isn't always a bad thing.
I feel this is the theme of the story because I feel like it taught Junior the most in his life. It taught Junior how to control his money and to life with what you got. It taught Junior that some people will surprise you if you just let them. It taught him that just because you don't have money doesn't mean that you can't have friends and people won't like. I feel as if there are many themes in this story, but I feel as if poverty is the most important life lesson for Junior so that makes it the most important.]]> 2018-01-10 14:48:39 UTC https://padlet.com/2010024/ot0sxr87sdf4/wish/220185554
