Past, Present, Future Tuesday Friday: Reading and annotation of “Introduction to Students: Active Reading and the Writing Process” article Monday: no school “Indian Education” by Sherman Alexie Background Read and annotate Small group analysis - chart notes

Creative Non-Fiction Tuesday Standard(s) 2. Reading for All Purposes 1. Literary criticism of complex texts requires the use of analysis, interpretive, and evaluative strategies Objective: you will be able to practice your active reading “Indian Education” strategies, annotating for plot events, feelings/emotions (tone), and big ideas/realizations (theme) Relevance: By interpreting complex texts, providing evidence, and communicating ideas, we are not only practicing the skills needed in any workplace or postsecondary setting, but also we are examining aspects of ourselves and others and how these as well as social and historical events impact the way in which we communicate. Inquiry Question(s) How do our experiences shape us? What is the significance of a mentor text? What topics are best for developing and planning a work of creative nonfiction?

Instruction: Obtain I Do Tuesday Purpose: to acquaint ourselves with some background knowledge prior to reading the text Outcome: write/share 1 personal reaction, 1 statement of new knowledge or 1 idea or question you have based on the following information Background on the U.S. government’s “Indian Schools” Beginning in the late 1800s and continuing in the 1950s, gov’t policymakers established boarding schools for Native American youth to help them assimilate into the dominant culture and thus become “civilized.” To this end, children were forcibly removed from their homes for long periods to separate them from native traditions. At the boarding schools, they were given a cursory academic education and spent most of their time studying Christian teachings and working to offset the cost of their schooling.

Background on the U. S. government’s “Indian Schools” Continued… Background on the U.S. government’s “Indian Schools” Continued…. Tuesday Students were punished for speaking their own language or practicing their own religion. Responding to protests from the American Indian Movement in the 1970s, the government began to send fewer Native American to boarding schools and retreated from its goal of assimilation at boarding schools and at newly established reservation schools. Currently, gov’t funding for Native American schools remains considerably lower than for other public schools, and students often make do with inadequate and antiquated facilities, equipment and textbooks. US government subsidies (housing, medical, food) help Native Americans on reservations, as they do other Americans not living on reservations but who also need assistance.
