How long do they train for their jobs for?
How do they do school and train for their job?
Is school different there than here? If so, what's it like?
Why do they start their jobs so young?]]> 2023-02-02 13:12:15 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2466091640 chapter 3 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2466093032 In this chapter Jonas' father is looking after a new-child Gabriel.
Lily likes the idea of becoming a birth mother but gets persuaded out of it
Jonas is till thinking about how the apple changed.

Why did the Apple change?
How did they find out he took the apple?
What do children do for their volunteer hours?  
How does the system work?
Why do they does their system that way?]]> 2023-02-02 13:13:19 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2466093032 chapter 1 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2466094327 This chapter is introducing the characters

What does releasing/released mean? Does it mean dying?
Why do they control them through the years?
I think being given jobs at a young age is smart, but I wonder how they have time to train for jobs and do school: how is school taught, how do they train?

Why are there so many rules about things they can't do? 
I don't think having this many rules makes them happier because it won't protect them from questions and worries they have. ]]> 2023-02-02 13:49:29 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2466144631 chapter 5 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2467602412 In this chapter Jonas told his parents about a dream, and his mother explained that they have to take pills for the dreams.

Why do they take pills to numb their feelings?
They have no independence and they all have to act the same way. What is the point of being given new things for each year? I feel it takes away independence knowing they have to dress the same as people their age. When a child dies, they just replace it like they're nothing. They even name them the same. They don't mention the word death and they only say release.]]> 2023-02-03 13:59:36 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2467602412 chapter 6 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2467604165 In this chapter they gave a replacement child to a family. This family had a child named Caleb that fell in the river and drowned. They gave the family a new child named Caleb as well.

Asher seems like he's questioning job selection and if he would move to a different community.
Lily seems to question everything that happens each year.
I wonder if the stories about people swimming through the river into a new community are true? and if Asher is thinking about it.

They have determined their future and jobs. They have no choice for the rest of their lives "Thank you for your childhood". This meant their childhood was taken by them for the community like everything they did wasn't for themselves or their lives. Did they skip over him because he did something wrong? Like taking the apple, or did they skip over him by accident? What happens if he doesn't get a job. Why didn't they tell him and will they ever tell him the exact reason?]]> 2023-02-06 13:28:44 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2470050235 chapter 8 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2471746448 This chapter is about how Jonas is scared and confused about his training and what the receiver of memory is

How do they observe and watch him?
What's a receiver of memory?
Why do they need one?
What happened to the other receiver?
Why did they not want to talk about what happened before?
Maybe he was talking about the story about the kid escaping through the river. Did they choose him because they feel he would be loyal and not tell anyone anything he sees.

Why can they not say her name?
What training happens that he can't tell anyone?
Why is he allowed to be rude and lie?
What type of pain will he be having?
Is he going to have all his feelings and freedom?
Are other people lying?
Is he going to be making decisions for the community over what happens to him?
Is he going to learn things other people aren't allowed to?
He doesn't know if people are treating him differently.]]> 2023-02-07 13:39:02 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2471757119 chapter 10 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2478975483 His training starts 
When the guy touches his back he transfers memories
They don't know what weather is like getting sunburnt or rain

Why are they not allowed to know about weather?
How does touching his back transfer memories?
Is this his training? Or is it him learning about receiving?

Jonas sees a rainbow and after he sees everything in colour
no one sees colour
he goes back to school and everyone wants to know what he's doing
he doesn't know what pain is
the memories that were transferred to the receiver that failed got released to the community and caused pain

Why was he denied a pain reliever after being hurt? Would it mess with his training?
Why was he still in pain after the memory finished, but he wasn't bleeding anymore?
How did Gabriel receive a memory if only certain people could?
Is it because they both have pale eyes
If you forget a memory when you give it to someone, how does the giver still know the memory he gave?
Why were Jonas and the giver chosen to receive all the pain and memories? Whats special about them?
If Gabriel gets released, what will happen to the memory he received and what will happen to his power of receiving.
What would happen if they found out what Jonas did

His parents basically say they dont love him?
He decides not to take the pill?
The pill almost suppresses his emotions and takes them away?
Why are grandparents not a thing anymore?
When he says they used to have grandparents it tells us they're slowing taking human minds away from the community
It says he was given a memory of a birthday and how it makes him feel as an individual which tells us they don't celebrate them as their own people only all together

why could the giver not handle the memory of warfare but Jonas could?
was the giver still receiving part of the memory even when it was given to Jonas?]]> 2023-02-14 13:40:02 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2481874748 chapter 12 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2483452844 free pass]]> 2023-02-15 13:29:15 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2483452844 chapter 11 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2483455858 This chapter is about jonas' first training and receiving memories.
first he receives the sledding memory, then he receives the memory of sunshine

Why is the sledding memory shared to Jonas? Is it to show extreme pain by getting injured? 
Has he ever gone sledding before?
Is it only Jonas who can do this stuff or have other people just not found out?

Jonas understands what the game really is and how it shouldn't be a game. He tries to explain that to Asher but he wouldn't understand anyway so he just gives up.

Why didn't Asher want to know the reason it upset Jonas so much?
Is lily actually onto something with her theory that everyone could be twins?
Since we've only heard about memories the giver has shared to Jonas how was Jonas' training evolved?]]> 2023-02-16 13:41:18 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2484981819 chapter 18 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2493320659 free pass]]> 2023-02-24 01:33:14 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2493320659 chapter 19 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2493320981 free pass]]> 2023-02-24 01:33:39 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2493320981 chapter 20 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2493858350 In this chapter Jonas finds out his father is killing the infants he has to release. He doesn't feel comfortable enough to go home after knowing that so the giver allows him to stay the night with him. The giver then has a plan to give all the memories back to people.

Will the giver be punished?
If the memories are released how will people react?
does Jonas' dad think what he's doing is harmless?

But Jonas ends up having to leave earlier when he finds out his father is going to release Gabriel because he can't sleep throughout the night.

Will Gabriel and Jonas have to go all the way back to the community by walking? Or will they stay? Or could they die?

But the roads get difficult to ride and he falls off the bicycle and is hurt from the coldness and doesn't know how much farther he can go.

Can Gabriel see colour since he has the same powers as Jonas?
What will happen to their powers since the memories are released? Do they go away?]]> 2023-02-24 13:54:49 UTC https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2493896010 chapter 23 emilychapman9 https://padlet.com/emilychapman9/d1s8rcu4s5k0wlw2/wish/2493900429
In this chapter he makes it to the end and finds a house that looked familiar. It seemed very close but so far. He might have been hallucinating in the end or he could've survived.

Did he survive?
Was he hearing things or was there acttually music?
How did Gabriel stay alive?
