“Needless to say, He will be released”-The elders from the giver
“Needless to say, He will be set free”
The author is trying to make us see that this town isn’t normal. It’s different from our everyday life, different from what we know. It’s also very creepy and everything’s unclear at the moment.
This story/passage had a significant impact on my thinking about places/towns that have different rules and thinking from my own. This place is very organized and orderly so it makes people feel safe. The more rules there are and the more punishments for breaking those rules, people will feel safer and it will seem perfect. The quote is important because the elders saying it are trying to make people feel safer. The guy in the airplane was breaking a rule and it make everyone uneasy. That airplane driver is now going to be released. This is putting the idea in everyone’s minds that if you break rules you’ll get proper punishment, or even be released, and there will be no crime in the town.

After i read all the responses i noticed a popular character trait was curious which i had done myself. I can defidentaly see Jonas being curious because he asks questions and wants to know more about his community. Some examples were the apple changing in the air and he wanted to know why or how the apple changed in mid air. He also asks Larissa about being released and Roberto when he is bathing her. He is also curious when he is skipped at the ceremony of twelves. Jonas character trait is curious which suits him.

After reading the responses a lot of people think he is brave or curious and i agree there are lots of things to show that he is curious he asked ash what was wrong with the apple because he saw it change and was curious about it. And he was very brave by even staying at the ceremony of twelves even when he got skipped. He also stood up on stage even though he was being singled out he is a brave kid and he is curious. Jonas has lots of character
traits but i believe kind curious and brave out number the rest that why i believe he is brave and curious.

Caring by teachers is the theme song that best describes Jonas in the book right now.. In the book Jonas is very caring about his friend, Asher because he doesn’t have good hand-eye coordination and he tries to help him with getting better. Also, Jonas helps the elderly bathe. After seeing all the slides, I think that Jonas has a lot of character traits that makes him himself. And it all of them show in almost every page in the book.

# data[].attributes.body
After analyzing Jonas and his personality, I have come to the conclusion that Jonas is a funny, thoughtful, and hard-working person. Yet this does not change how I perceive him very much. I saw other people's ideas of his personality and I do agree with most people that he is brave. I think the song that describes him best is Brave by Sara Bareilles.

# data[].attributes.body
I can see that a lot of people think that he is very curious and it is true, there are alot of things that he does that shows how curious he is. I think that the traits that i chose fit him very well because of his actions and words in this book. Caring at the house of the old, jealous of asher and fiona, and intelligent because he watches how he speaks and thinks about what it might do to someone.

After reading some of these responses many people chose curious or observant but i chose curious because I believe this suits him very well. Because in the book Jonas was playing toss with a Asher his friend,( Page 31Chapter and everything seemed normal at first, But then it had changed in the air. At first Jonas couldn't believe what was going on, he had seen color for the first time. Jonas didn't think any thing of it, until the ceremony of twelves, when he got the roll in his town. His roll was The Receiver of Memory,There was only one other elder with this job so no one knew what it would be like to have this special roll. when the chief was talking about Jonas's new roll she said something about being able to see beyond, and she didn't have words to describe what this meant. So no one knew not even Jonas, until he remembered about the apple, they he took into consideration that this was something a little more serious than he had ever imagined. This shows he is curios because he wants to know more about being able to see beyond, ans if hes the right pick for his roll,The Reviser of Memory.

Jonas is very brave because after being singled out at the ceremony of 12, he still when up on stage, stood next to the Chief Elder, but it was good he did because now he is the new receiver and he has the most important job of all. He is brave of the fact that he could have been and out cast. Facing your fear will get you metal/physical success.

# data[].attributes.body
I saw that a lot of people chose observant, I did too. I think that a lot of people chose this because Jonas notices that the apple changes and he always talks about the differences in people. this was a good choice because he really does have aspects in him that are very observant.

# data[].attributes.body
I have noticed that a lot a people chose curious, as have I. Curious was a good option for me because many students chose it and I can read their slides and change my opinion based on that. The people who didn't choose curious also had very good opinions and I agree with them about the song they chose. Curious worked well for me because I too am very curios and explore different things and because I can relate it makes it easier for me

# data[].attributes.body
I saw a lot of people choosing the trait brave. Don't think that brave describes Jonas as well as curious because he said him self that he wasn't brave and in the book he doesn't show a lot of aspects of the brave factor . Jonas observes the world a lot and asks questions along the way. such as why did the apple change color or in the ceremony of 12 when he got his assignment, he say the people change just for a second.

# data[].attributes.body
Jonas is observant because when he saw that apple he was being observant the definition for observant is "quick to notice" and he saw that apple with color so that why i think Jonas is observant

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Jonas is curious because when he is playing catch with Asher and the apple changes, it says on page 31 that he took the apple home and examined it, using a magnifying glass and rolling it around on the table to see if it would change again.

# data[].attributes.body
I say that Jonas is curious. He is always asking questions and always wondering beyond the answer he receives not matter what. I think that is why he was chsoen to be the receiver as well.

# data[].attributes.body
I think jonas is brave because he keeps himself together when he walks to the stahe.

# data[].attributes.body
I think jonas is very curious, nurturing, caring, and observant. He was nurturing when he wanted to bathe Fiona. Curious when the apple changed. Caring when he went to the house of the old. Observant when he notices Larissa is comfortable.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Jonas was curious when he saw the apple change he asked Asher if he had saw something wrong with the apple but Asher only said it kept slipping out of his hand. Jonas took it home and rolled it around tossed it up and watched as it was in the air but it didn't. Later in the story he said the auditorium change so he is still being curious when that happens.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Jonas is very curious, kind, consitarit, loving, observant. Jonas really cares about his society and he cares about his family and friends. That is what i think about Jonas. Oh and did i mention that he's caring.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Jonas is curious because when him and Asher were tossing the apple back and forward, he said that the apple had changed but didn't know if anyone else saw it. Then he takes the apple home to see if it would change again but it didn't and this shows he is curious because is he wondering why it changed and if it would happen again

# data[].attributes.body
I see that a lot of people choose curious so I think that the best word to describe Jonas would be curious. I think that the word curious says his name because for one he is curious about the world around him and how things such as the apple turn a different color. I know that he is very observant, and that plays a huge role in him being  curious. How would Jonas be able to see the apple turn a different color if he wasn't looking and watch around him. I think that Jonas is more than curious, he's special.

# data[].attributes.body
After i looked through all of the slides i think that Jonas is brave he still walks on stage after being skipped tells is dreams and all around he really just will tell the truth about what he is thinking and feeling.

# data[].attributes.body
I Seen all the slides and Jonas is still observant because there are a lot of different things that he sees that no one else can. For example he notices when the apple changes color and when Gabes eyes turn pale. He is observant with every little thing possible that he can see that no one else cant, so that makes him special.

# data[].attributes.body
I  think that Jonas was frightened and he probably thinks he will fail. In chapter one it states that “Jonas was beginning to be frightened.”  Page #1

# data[].attributes.body
After seeing the other slides i still think Jonas is observant. He notices things others don’t. Like the apple that asher threw had color. He noticed that everyone was different, Gabe and his pale eyes, how relaxed Larissa was,  and how serious Pierre was.

# data[].attributes.body
I saw that most people have chose that Jonas was brave because he was able to walk up to the stage even after being very embarrassed. Jonas also isn't afraid to share his dreams even though he is scared to.

# data[].attributes.body
After seeing a good majority of the slides, many people thought that he was somewhere in the “kind” realm. Many people had thought that Jonas was a very kind and considerate person based on some of the things they had found. From bathing the older woman, to making sure everyone he knew was comfortable, he was a very thoughtful and observant person as well. When I see Jonas, I feel very surprised that a person who has grown up in the perfect place could be so kind. When I think of perfect I think of pressure, but no know talked about having pressure put on Jonas or the overwhelming feeling of nothing. Jonas had put his kind side forward, and made sure that he was living to the fullest extent as well as the best extent. Jonas seemed to make everyone happy and willing to live in such an enclosed and perfect place. Jonas seemed to care a lot about others from what people were saying, rather than himself.  Overall, Jonas is a kind person, who puts others in front of him, rather than taking care of himself to make everyone comfortable.

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed that a lot of people chose brave, and i think that fits Jonas very well because he's not afraid to share his feelings no matter how bad they might be, and he never really gives up hope. I think that everyone else also picked good words that they think describe him and his character traits

# data[].attributes.body
I see that a lot of people thought Jonas was brave or curious. I can see how as Jonas was brave to keep quiet even though he was skipped at the ceremony and curious because he observes the world around him.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that he is observant because when the old lady was in the tub he realized that the way she was relaxing looked like how Gabriel looked when he was being bathed. He also noticed that he had been skipped at the ceremony of twelve. He also realized they went from 18 to 20 and he was number 19. His heart was racing and he did not look at his parents because he did not want to their faces of disapproval.

# data[].attributes.body
I choose observant to describe Jonas because he noticed a lot of details that are happening in the story. He noticed that him and Gabe have the same color eyes and he also noticed that Larissa was being very relaxed. He also payed attention everyone at the ceremony of 12.

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed that a lot of people have picked curious because he wonders and pays attention to almost everything around him and he is constantly wondering about things that seem different to him. I think everybody else picked a good word that describes a piece of his personality and it is very interesting to see what other people see the most in Jonas,
