In English on Thursday, instead of working in our Lit circles, we did chapter questions on the novel, Indian Horse. I read from chapter 11-14. In these chapters, Saul ends up in St Jerome's Residential school where "education" describes a perpetual cycle of abuse. The story bleakly corroborates the catalogue of horrors that occurred in residential schools across Canada: a nun viciously beats a boy: another routinely has his hands tied behind his back to prevent him from wiping his nose on his sleeve; a six year old child hangs from the rafters and another dies in the iron sister and the list goes on.
Chapter questions for 10 and 11 are homework.
