We had to read the whole book in one lesson of "Diary of a Part Time Indian" as a group. My job was Discussion Director and I have to ask questions to my group. They did not do as well as I would have liked but not bad. There was a lot to memorize. The story is about an Indian who is poor and starts to rebel and goes to an all white.
Who is the main character and why did he rebel?
The main character is Arnold Spirit and he is rebelling because he does not want a meaningless life. He wants to go somewhere in life unlike other Indians so he goes to an all-white school.
Why was Rowdy so mad?
Because his best friend, Arnold, left him to go to a different school. Later in the book, Rowdy gave Arnold a concussion.
What was the new school Arnold went to called?
The new "all-white" school was called Reardan.
What was the girl in the school named?
Her name was Penelope and Arnold had an immense crush on her.
What were two main deaths that affected Arnold?
Arnold's sister died which left Arnold distraught because she was his role model. And Arnold's grandmother died because she was run over by a truck.
