Our Group

– Discussion Director : Aiden is asking some question in the story

1. What happened in his second memory? Was it the same as the first one?

2.On page 115, What did did the Giver talk about back then?

3.How did Jonas feel after entering the annex room?

4. What is Jonas other memory beside memory of snow? (Hint: there’s a warfare happening)

5. What happen to Jonas for the first time?

– Reflector: Kiet is doing what happened to Jonas

I think he will be panic, because these might be too horrible for him, and maybe this is when last receiver had fail.So that why the giver said sorry and worry before that. The mood is boring and horrible as what i felt. I think something big is happening. Jonas in this section is a bit passive, and he had receive a lot of thing that might over range for him. “The Giver looked away, as if he could not bear to see what he had done to Jonas. “Forgive me,” he said.” It made me feel excited and interesting to read next chapter but I am to lazy to read. This section this kind of better than other section.
