- Typed drafts of Geology and Natural History portions of the River Story
- Crooked River Assignment #3


Read pages 58-97 (Chapters 10-15)

Choose 2 of the following questions to answer and you must do the visual activity.
***This should be done on a separate sheet of paper or in your reading notebook.  Answers turned in on this slip of paper will not be accepted.***

Questions:
A.      What is a Learned Pig Show? (p. 58) In what ways is Indian John being treated more like an animal than a human being by settlers?
B.      After reading Chapter 11 and the poem on pages 66-68, what do you learn about Peter Kelley and Indian John?  How do they know each other?
C.      How does Peter Kelley’s upbringing affect the way he views John Amik?  How is his upbringing different than Rebecca and Laura’s?
D.      On page 77, Rebecca finds an arrowhead in her family’s fields.  How does this discovery change her views of Native Americans?
Visual Activity:   In the Chippewa culture, “moons” are months.  The “moon of the Big Spirit” is January, the “moon of the crust on snow” is March and so on.  Create a visual calendar with your own names for the “twelve moons” based on today’s modern culture.  (ex: September is “the moon of starting school”, etc.)
