About Me
- Mrs. Rigsby
- I grew up in a suburb of Chicago and attended the University of Missouri at Columbia for my undergrad. I have a Masters in Elementary Education from Regis. I come from a family with four kids. My sister is a teacher in Chicago. One of my brothers lives here and the other one lives in Chicago. I moved here because my husband loved Colorado and I loved him. As it turns out,I love Colorado as well.
I think junior transfers to Reardan because he knows that he can't stay at the reserve. He was probably deeply moved by the speech his teacher gave about them making Indians give up. He was utterly convinced by the line: you are special because you haven't given up, and when he decides to eave the school he probably believes that Reardan will be a better place for him to grow. He probably thought about the kids there, and how skilled they were. he might also have chosen to go there because there is no mention of any other school outside the reserve up to page 66.

I think that junior transfers to rearden to show that the world should be more intermixed. He transfers because if he stays, then he won't be killed, but will live like the rest of the indians, alchoholic, and fighting.

I think that Junior transfers to Readan to show his resistans and as Mr.P said even though he phisically wont be killed mentaly and he and the rest of the indians with have their indian herritage destroyed in them. And will have nothing to cherrish. So far I LOVE the book!
ReplyDeleteI think Junior transfered to Reardan because he wanted the place where he lived to be more diverse. He also knows he can't stay at the reserves.
