It was bright, sunny, and not a cloud in the sky. Everyone was going on with there cool fall Tuesday morning. People rushing to work, traffic in the streets. Jonas looked up and and saw a large plane pulling closer to the twin towers. All the sudden blinked and everyone had terror on their faces. Fire in their eyes. Then he realized… the 4 large planes have crashed into the towers. Then it happened, I couldn’t believe it the towers of New York city were in flames. I saw the fire in the girls eyes standing next to me. Thousands of people running away from the towers and hundreds of medical vehicles everywhere. Screams and crys for help coming in every direction. Then I opened my eyes and I was in the Annex room. "That day made history!" Jonas said.

As he looks at the ground he realizes that the ground is nothing but a sea of water and swallowed houses.When he looks in the house he sees the water starting to come closer to swallowing him whole and he sees the family crying and saying that they love each other and then the  words came into his mind. natural disaster,fear,destruction,love,hurricane .Before the water can reach to the top of the roof he awoke in the Annex room shiver from fear and crying in sorrow for the family.     ]]> 2018-01-29 15:50:40 UTC https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225688773 Hannah Stephansen https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225688887 When the Giver placed his hands on Jonas’ back, he was transported to a sunny New Orleans on a beautiful day in August. People dashing into shelters and houses as if they were running for their lives. As people walked, something came from the sky and it appeared to be coming harder and harder. People started to scream and say, “The hurricane is coming! We better get out of here!” The waves were crashing against the seashore and started coming on land. The people started to run in anger as the waves came closer. The continuous water kept coming upon the shore. The choppy waves and the dewy drops of water were joined by the wind. The gusty wind ripped up many things. After the wind, the rain, and the waves stopped, people started to have different emotions and started to pick up belongings quickly. Some people had water quickly getting distributed out of houses by using buckets. The whole land was filled with deadly amounts of water overflowed. New words entered Jonas’ mind- hurricane, dangerous, natural disasters. Jonas awoke in the Giver’s room, he was so scared and frightened of it that dangerous storm called a hurricane would happen again. ]]> 2018-01-29 15:50:50 UTC https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225688887 Allison Vanni https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225719965 When the Giver placed his hands on Jonas’ back, he was transported back to Dec. 10 2011 it’s a living room with the mother on a chair, and a father, brother, and a sister on the couch. The mother said “Children you're father and I have lost our spark we have carefully decided that were getting a divorce.” Before the mother could finish the word the sister blasts out crying she drops to the floor still crying as loud as she ever has before. The brother doesn’t have a single tear in his eyes, his mouth turns to a frown he puts his head down. Jonas looked back and forth between the two children, thinking whats divorce and how can something be that bad. The brother then lifts his head up and asks in a hesitant voice “So you and father aren’t going to be married any longer.” Father says “yes that's correct son.” Jonas then turns back to the annex room and Jonas looks up at The Giver and says faintly “divorce, but how, why.”

Jonas was in a world of a bunch of wind. He looked around and saw a bunch of destroyed houses. He saw people flying through the air then suddenly he was of the ground and flying through the air himself. Then new words popped into his mind tornado, distribution, flying.

(I suggest checking your capitalization and punctuation.) https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225726823 The giver put his hands on Jonas back, the date was 9/11 Jonas saw the terror in peoples faces when he looked up in the sky a plane has crashed into a building. He smelled the smoke coming from the building, he was in shock thinking why would anyone do this. He was scared as he saw the blood on the floor from rescued people, he was terrified when he saw office chairs, office supplies falling out the building. the moment of the second plane hit the other tower Jonas saw the fear in the people. The people were shoving, running in terror as the second plane hit the building. Jonas was crying as he woke up in the annex room The Giver gave him a tissue as Jonas was getting ready to go home.

He was in a small booth in front on a computer working. Suddenly the building began to shake, he thought it was an earthquake so he got down. Moments later he notices the plane crashed into the building with a man dead. 
 “What the? Where am I?” Jonas said to himself.
 “Help!” Jonas heard from far away. He was going to help the person but he remembered that he could not help, but only observe. Curious Jonas follows them down the stairs. 
 “Stop! Please, someone need help!” He cried. Joanns became limp, he figured if he stopped trying, they would stop carrying him. Which, they did. Sitting back up after falling to the ground he calls out. A man calls out, “Where are you?” He exclaimed. 
 “In the closet!” Joans looked over to the wall, it was covered in debris and trash. It was no use, if the man tried, he would die.
 “I’m so sorry! I can’t help you.” He said looking onto the ground stopping dust on his shoes. 
 “No, please! Help me! I don’t want die! Please!” The man cried for help, baniging on the door, not giving up. With every step you could see the man urging to dash at the closet and help the man, but he couldn’t. If he did, it would cost him his life. 
 Jonas got outside the building he sees dozens of people covered from head to toe in white powder. The man he had just seen in the building, limping over to a police officer, “Sir, what is happening?” He whimpers.
 “The towers,” he paused “their falling.” The man spoke very calm. While Jonas was wondering what was truly happening, and the man in awe. 
 A moment later the tower Joans was in, falls. White fog covered the town like a blanket. Jonas now realizing, the man he heard, but couldn’t see. Was dead. 
 With a flicker of light, Joans was back in the annex room, processing what just happened.

The evening was cold wind blowing everywhere, could barely even hold my balance. I was confused water droplets spraying wherever he could look to see people running to brick buildings and crouching screaming in a language I couldn't understand water started to fill the streets up to his knees his pants soaked. He thought it was kind of cool until Jonas’ looked behind him a wave the size of 10 of the buildings combined speeding toward him. He was speechless he tried running away, pleading for mercy Jonas turned his head over his shoulder and noticed the wave was an inch behind him. Jonas woke up in the annex and 3 words came to me. Destruction, Devastation, Title Wave

It looked different and by different he meant there was a different kind of tree he was used to. He found himself standing on an unusual ground it was shaky and kept getting even more shaky by the minute. After a couple minutes the ground was shaking so hard that Jonas fell over and could barely stand. He heard screams of fear from close by. A big big crash filled Jonas’s ears. Buildings were falling over and houses were collapsing. People were being crushed by falling building and trees. Jonas had never seen anything like this before. There were people dying right in front of him, they were so close to him. The ground shook even more and Jonas fell hard and hit his head. This new word filled Jonas’s head with fear “earthquake”. As Jonas was laying on the floor with blood coming from his head from hitting the ground a building almost crushed him until he awoke taking deep breaths and crying deeply in the Giver’s room.

When he looked around, the brightness gave him a little jump. He turned around and all he could see was flags that were being whipped around by the wind. There were colors on the flag, red,white, and blue. These soldiers do not look like the people in today’s days… They wore long brown and blue coats and some had long white hair and others had short white hair. He suddenly heard the exploding bombs go off, and all the men screaming on the top of their lungs charge! From left to right, there were non stop gunshots and soldiers dropping every 10 seconds. Everyone slowly backing off, whimpering with bloody wombs. New words entered Jonas’s mind- war, sadness, freedom. The Americans won, and this showed Jonas that this was where America won their freedom. Jonas awoke in the Giver’s room, smiling with fear inside.]]> 2018-01-30 01:50:45 UTC https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225913688 Kristiana Bridges kristiana_i_bridges https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225913806 When the Giver placed his old wrinkly hands on Jonas’ back, he was transported to a colorful room.  Full of the same colors over and over again. One was Like the ocean. Blue came to his mind. He saw the color red a lot too. One more color came to his mind but he couldn't place his finger on it. There was a ton of murmuring words from people and they were arguing but in a settled way. People were lined up to go into a box to fill out a paper. There were many signs as well. Some said whites for president and others said the opposite. New words entered Jonas’ mind- Racial equality, African american presidency, Leadership. He realized what the third color was. White. Red white and blue the colors of a flag. Then he realized he was in the memory of the first African american presidential ballot election. A name came to his mind Barack Obama, the first African american president Jonas awoke in the Giver’s room was was amazed at what he witnessed. Realizing how important a leader is and  how it is amazing once African american people weren't allowed to vote, and couldn't have an opinion,  they were property. But now one is a president. ]]> 2018-01-30 01:51:38 UTC https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225913806 Mackenzie Magit https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225925546 As the giver gently placed his dry, wrinkled hands onto Jonas’ back he was immediately teleported to a warm, sunny place called London. He felt butterflies in his stomach, as the nervousness of the crowd washed over his body. All of a sudden, he heard a gunshot go off, and people wearing a variety of different colors start to run.  The crowd began to cheer, screaming at the top of their lungs, “Run Taylor run!” It had came to his mind that Taylor had been the only African American on the track. The words freedom, Olympics, race, and equality had rushed to his mind. The tension in him started to rise all through his body as Taylor and the other racers got closer to the finish line. Then a big gasp of thrill came came across the crowd and the loudspeaker screamed, “The first ever African American to get a gold medal, John Taylor!” Then Jonas was back in the Annex room, confused, but happy.]]> 2018-01-30 03:13:57 UTC https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/225925546 Caden Saldana https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/226118939  When The Giver placed his cold hand on Jona’s back, he was transported to a bright sunny day and there were crowds of people on all sides of the sidewalk,and Big metal devices on every street blocking the roads. There were people talking and asking when he's going to arriving. A tall lady with a long coat yelled:“He’s in that car look” Pointing with her finger while the car pulled and started going slowly down the street all the way to the end. The crowd started getting excited for some reason and started to cheer and waved their hands in the air to get attention. One car standed out the most out of all of them this one was opened and not closed on top of the car like the rest. This handsome fellow with long hair waving to the crowd with his wife by his side wearing a hat and a lady suit, Something went terrible after that moment the man in the car started to cough like something was wrong then a loud bang came from somewhere everyone was frightened what they saw next shocked them the guy with long hair was pronounced dead killed from a bullet people kept  when he was not moving people were still by his side. Jonas’s felt empty inside and scared of what just happened wanting to forget all the words he heard bullet,Dead,Assassination. Jonas’s woke back in the givers room with a dull face.]]> 2018-01-30 15:11:19 UTC https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/226118939 Hunter Dalby https://padlet.com/tconnor/kmxbuliqbrgn/wish/226141557 When the Giver placed his ice cold hands on Jonas’ back, and he was transported to a park with millions of hairy things. They were tall and small things. There were people there too. Jonas noticed that there was a something that kept all the hairy things in. Then a man walked up and said “Hi i’m John whats your name?” Jonas said “My name is Jonas.” Another man walked and said “I’m the owner of this park. Do you have any animals?” Jonas said “I don’t have any animals.” Then new words came to Jonas’ mind, Dog-fence-dog park-leash. Then he looked down to his side and saw that a DOG was standing next to him. When he notice he had a dog by him he went into the dog park and let his dog off the leash. Then when he went to sit on a bench a dog came up and bit his leg. The dog tore off some of his skin. He was gushing blood. Then he was transported back to the Annex room. He checked his leg only to find out that his leg was fine.
