Ch 1-10 analysis review questions for Indian Horse (due by the end of the period): Each response should be 3-8 sentences EACH. Focus on writing correct, full sentences that are punctuated properly. Quotes, when used, must be properly integrated, punctuated and cited, including page number.
1) Read the passage from p. 11 beginning with, “She was lost to me then…” and discuss how Saul’s mother becomes lost because of her children being taken away. What does this look like? Explain how this experience impacts Saul.
2) At the end of Ch 10, Saul is left completely alone. Who has he lost? Why has this happened? How do you think all of these losses will impact him? Do you think there could be a link between these losses so early in his life and the fact that the novel opens with Saul in a rehab facility? Explain.
3) Pick your favourite passage from what you have read so far (up to and including Ch 10) and copy out the quote with correct citation. Why does this passage in particular resonate with you? How does the passage you have chosen relate to the plot of the novel up to this point? Of the 21 themes and topics for the First Peoples’ course, which do you feel connect with the passage you have chosen? Explain the connections you see.
