People in the community are limited to choice, for example, your job is given to you. This is important because it shows how controlling whatever group who runs the community is. This also tells us readers how little choice they have.]]> 2023-03-20 18:04:17 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524054279 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524054523 I think the most significant part of the giver is when Jonas met the giver. I think this is the most important part because this shows who the giver is and what Jonas will become in the future.]]> 2023-03-20 18:04:27 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524054523 yc99411 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524055258 I think the most important take away is that Jonas don't know if anyone is lying to him. This is crucial because Jonas's life is falling apart and he is "falling into the doubt."]]> 2023-03-20 18:04:54 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524055258 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524055530 I think the most significant event that happened is when Jonas starts seeing red. He sees the red in apples and Fiona's hair. This is important because no one else can see color and this also changes Jonas's perspective on the community.]]> 2023-03-20 18:05:07 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524055530 dp9103_2 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524055777 The most important part in the Giver so far is the fact that Jonas realizes that the government has hidden everything including color from everyone in the society. This is the most important part so far because this is the part that shows why the Receiver of Memory is the most important job. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:05:17 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524055777 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524056458 The most significant takeaway from these past five chapters is how Jonas is starting to understand how controlling the government has been. I think that this is very significant because I think that this is a major point in the book that will be discussed more in the book. I think this especially because Jonas has started to get mad about how much the government has taken away from them like color.]]> 2023-03-20 18:05:45 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524056458 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524056511 Jonas wants to be able to have choice in his life, and the lives of others. For example, he wanted to be able to pick what tunic he should wear. He also thought Gabe would learn better if he had colors to guide him. This paints a picture of what Jonas's community looks like: bleak and colorless.]]> 2023-03-20 18:05:48 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524056511 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524056618 For me, I think the most significant part of the giver is when Jonas finds out what pain is. For example, when Jonas got a sunburn, he found ut real pain that you can have as the receiver]]> 2023-03-20 18:05:52 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524056618 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524057018 The most significant takeaway from the last 5 chapters is power vs. honor. I think this is the most important takeaway, because they are two very unalike things, and being one over the other is very different. I think he might have both for Jonas because he has access to the memories, and he's honored quite a lot. However, this comes at a significant cost at him to experience a lot of pain. The memories grant him the power to know how the government is controlling him, and elsewhere, and everything else. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:06:08 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524057018 fe08011 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524057446 1.An important takeaway i believe i saw in The Giver is that the old giver feels lighter and younger when he transfers memories to Jonas. 2. I believe that this is important because when the giver said he was not as old as it seemed he was he actually meant that since as he gives away memories from him to Jonas he feels more lighter and younger but exhausted from giving away those memories]]> 2023-03-20 18:06:27 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524057446 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524057533 Jonas is wondering what is going on like how will it hurt him and he does feel a little like the sun burn and the war. But also he finds out more about his powers and the cool stuff like seeing elephants be he is wondering if he had you could lie on his assignment could others be lying]]> 2023-03-20 18:06:30 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524057533 pm3149_2 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524057765 I think that the most important takeaway is that choice is very important and that it should not be taken for granted.

I think that this is important because he now knows what pain feels like in his training.]]> 2023-03-20 18:06:41 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524057863 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524058266 The most significant takeaway I got from the past 5 chapters was the pain Jonas feels about the things that aren't there anymore. The elephants are one part of this and basically, all other animals that Jonas now knows are true and hurt that they are gone. Color is a big thing as well being the beyond that receivers see.]]> 2023-03-20 18:06:58 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524058266 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524058435 The most significant takeaway from the past five chapters is Jonas finally learning what the phrase "seeing beyond" means. This is significant because it's finally showing what that phrase means and how it affects Jonas.]]> 2023-03-20 18:07:04 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524058435 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524058821 I think the most significant takeaway from the past 5 chapters is that they don't get a choice in anything. Jonas is slowly starting to realize that he, along with other people in the community don't get a choice in anything. The leaders choose their partner, choose their job, and every part of their life is controlled. The community does not want anyone to make the wrong choice or make a mistake leading them to be controlling.]]> 2023-03-20 18:07:18 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524058821 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524058989 The most significant takeaway from The Giver is that Jonas is now starting to experience "unworldly" pain. There are many things that he hasn't experienced, heard of, or even known, such as sunburn. He realizes how much the government has taken from his community. Pain is a large part of the world we know today, so learning about pain is a significant part of his life. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:07:24 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524058989 ag46591 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524059271 I think that the most significant takeaway from these chapters is that Jonas thinks it's unfair that the government took away color. With color comes choices, Jonas wants to make choices even if they are little. For example, choosing what color tunic to wear. taking that away makes him sad. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:07:34 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524059271 ab5961_2 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524059409 I think the most important takeaway from the past five chapters was that Jonas is beginning to question the lack of choice in his community. I think this is important because he might try to do things he is not supposed to, for example when he tried to tell his little sister Lily about elephants. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:07:41 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524059409 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524059534 The last 5 chapters of The Giver, show us that having a choice is having responsibility and power. In the community Jonas lives in, the government has taken away choice, and color. When Jonas starts to train with The Giver, he starts to see beyond, which he then figures out, is him seeing color. He starts to get frustrated with the government because he finds out they have taken away color just like their choice. He first starts to see the apple change, and he also sees Fiona's hair change. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:07:45 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524059534 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524059696 My most significant takeaway from these last 5 chapters was - Choice.
The people in Jonas's community were not allowed even the most basic choices such as seeing color. This is significant because that goes to show how authoritarian the government is in Jonas's community.]]> 2023-03-20 18:07:53 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524059696 rp95001 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060083 I think that the most significant takeaway in these chapters is that Jonas begins to realize that all citizens of the community don't have a choice. The government conceals color and animals from them, but the citizens never got to choose if they wanted to give those things up. Jonas wishes that he could share this with his family and friends, but he is not allowed to.]]> 2023-03-20 18:08:08 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060083 ak5690 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060319 I believe the most significant takeaway is that they didn't have a choice in their government, so I appreciate us getting to vote and being able to see colors, but yeah k really don't agree with their society.]]> 2023-03-20 18:08:17 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060319 ka14031 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060347 I think the most significant part of the five chapters of The Giver is having the choice of decision making. Jonas starts seeing colors, but realizes that no one else has the power to see colors and to be able to make the same choices as him. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:08:19 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060347 ar9871_2 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060422 I think the most significant takeaway from the past 5 chapters is when Jonas receives the memories from The Giver. I believe this is significant because Jonas starts to learn how controlling the government is in his society. In these chapters, Jonas realizes that the government has taken so many things away from them and Jonas wishes that he could bring all those fun and amazing things back into his society for everyone to see and have. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:08:22 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060422 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060597 I think the most important takeaway was from chapter 12. In chapter 12 when Jonas went back into his first memory he looked down at the sled and then saw the color red for the first time in his life. I think when Jonas saw the color red it made him feel why can´t everyone in his community not see the color red he also thought that it was unfair that only he could see the color red and nobody else in his community could see it. I think this is the most significant because it talks about Jonas seeing color for the first time in his life and thinking that was the only color but there was a lot more. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:08:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524060597 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524061316 In my opinion, the most significant takeaway is that the community does not have any choice. Jonas realizes that everyone in the community has limited knowledge. He gets angry by this because people do not get to see color or know what animals are. ]]> 2023-03-20 18:08:48 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524061316 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524168679 I think the most important takeaway from these 5 chapters is how the community cannot see colors. It is important because it foreshadows how Jonas is probably going to take action against the community so everyone can see the colors. As is shown how Jonas wants to tell his family and friends about color but none of them have an understanding of what it is. The fact the community was able to "genetically modify humans" to not see colors gives Jonas an example of how controlling the community is.]]> 2023-03-20 19:25:42 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524168679 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524188162 I think it is important how no one can see color.

So not only are they growing in "sameness' but their entire community is a dull shade, which shows how the citizens are so deprived of the joy Jonas experienced in the past memories and how they consider this normal since they don't know any other way. This shows how shielded they are from the rest of the world, which is the ultimate goal]]> 2023-03-20 19:43:31 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189358 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189494 1. I think the most important take away from the past 5 chapters is that he realizes that different colors other than black and white exist. 
2. I think it's the most important because his whole world changed when he realized that. He also started getting angry because he disliked that people took different things away from the world, and everyone is the same now. ]]> 2023-03-20 19:43:39 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189494 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189542 I think the most significant takeaway from the chapter is the fact that Jonas starts to realize  how life isn't all the same. For example Jonas starts to see color, he experiences pain and he sees memories of things he didn't think existed.]]> 2023-03-20 19:43:42 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189542 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189597 I think the most significant takeaway in these 5 chapters is that the government decided that they would have total control over the community. Jonas realizes this because he starts to see color and that he is not allowed to share is experiences. I think these are the most significant ones because this could lead Jonas to do some crazy things live revolting.]]> 2023-03-20 19:43:44 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189597 ll0649_2 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189612 The most important take away is there are genetic scientists who changed people. This means there were or are people working in secret to change others even though no one can see the colors it still frustrates the scientists. ]]> 2023-03-20 19:43:45 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189612 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189797 Personally, the biggest takeaway from the past few chapters has been Jonas and him not being able to express the things he's seen as the new Receiver. This leaves him having to lie to others, but in the end it mustn't feel well to bluntly lie to the people you know.]]> 2023-03-20 19:43:56 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189797 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189924 I think that the most significant takeaway from the past five chapters was that Jonas and the Giver are the only two people who know about life before Sameness. They know that life wasn´t always in the community; they know what true choices are. That makes Jonas a unique citizen of the community and an outsider.]]> 2023-03-20 19:44:03 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524189924 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190039 I think the most significant takeaway from the past 5 chapters is how Jonas realizes that his community isn't the perfect area he thought it was. His obliviousness is fading away and he's thinking about whether others lie, and he's getting his own opinions. It's important because he's seeing choice and getting his own personality instead of the one he was born to have. He's getting his own individuality and realizing his community isn't a utopia.]]> 2023-03-20 19:44:09 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190039 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190045 I think the most simple significant part of The Giver is when Jonas meet the Giver because The giver is going to train Jonas really hard and torture him for him to become the Receiver in the future.]]> 2023-03-20 19:44:10 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190045 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190143 I think the most significant takeaway in the last 5 chapters is when Jonas got his memory of sunburn and when he got the memory of the elephant. I think these 2 things are important as it shows Jonas what pain, death, and sorrow look and feel like. This is also significant as Jonas was directly shown what it was to feel sunburn or to see a lifeform die. ]]> 2023-03-20 19:44:15 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190143 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190171 I think the most significant event takeaway from the past 5 chapters is Jonas is able to finally see red and realizes what he and everyone else in the community is missing out on. This is the moment when he finds out exactly how much the Elders are controlling him because his vision is black and white. He also feels lonely because he is the only one who can see red and he wants others to expirience it too.]]> 2023-03-20 19:44:17 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190171 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190284 I think the most significant takeaway from the past five chapters is that Jonas is slowly becoming more frustrated, more indignant, more willing to do something as the chapters pass. As a contrast to this, the Giver is seemingly becoming calmer and more complacent as he passes on his memories However, as he does not discourage Jonas's rebellious thoughts, he may be more supportive of rebellion than he seems. ]]> 2023-03-20 19:44:25 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190284 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190432 I think the most significant takeaway from the past five chapters is that Jonas is slowly starting to learn about the community and that it is more different than he imagined. He also is asking a lot of questions to the giver too.]]> 2023-03-20 19:44:32 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190432 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190562 I think the most significant take-away is that there were a lot of things Jonas had not seen that had happened before Sameness. Jonas learns how to see color, he learns about snow, sunlight, and sunburns, and he learns about how things were before the Elders took away choice. He gets pretty frustrated by the fact that his community doesn't get choice, and he is the only one who understands what happened before Sameness.]]> 2023-03-20 19:44:39 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524190562 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191031 I think that the most significant take-away from chapters 9-13 is that the world is in black and white. Everybody who is not the receiver sees only shades of black, white, and gray. Also, everybody is the same race. Jonas saw different colors of flesh in a memory for the first time. ]]> 2023-03-20 19:45:08 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191031 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191060 A takeaway that I found in the past 5 chapters is how the Giver can transfer memories to Jonas. I find this interesting since Jonas had never experienced these things in society. For example, Jonas didn't know what color, snow, downhill/uphill, and many other things were until we became the Reciever.]]> 2023-03-20 19:45:10 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191060 ak60531 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191070 I think the most significant take-away from these past chapters is that the community's leaders believe that its citizens shouldn't be able to make their own decisions. This is significant because it made me think of what was wrong and right about it and how in a way, it isn't necessarily wrong ]]> 2023-03-20 19:45:10 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191070 sp6859_2 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191266 I think the most significant takeaway for the last five chapters is how Jonas is slowly breaking away from the rules. He is being taught to break the rules he has followed his whole life and this is affecting his character majorly. He is starting to form opinions and is now unhappy with his life, wanting things to change. Change would destroy sameness, and sameness is what his community is built on, this creates a main conflict for the main character.]]> 2023-03-20 19:45:22 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191266 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191335 I think the most significant take away from the text is when he can listen to others about their jobs but Jonas can tell anyone about it except the Giver. He is the only one out of all the jobs that can't share anything he did with the Giver.]]> 2023-03-20 19:45:27 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191335 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191780 The most significant takeaway that I took is the power of choice since some choices can be good or bad so you got to think good since they can cause chaos or not]]> 2023-03-20 19:45:53 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191780 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191972 I think the most significant takeaway from these past 5 chapters is that Jonas can see the color red. This is important because Jonas is the only one who can see color and be able to experience this amazing thing that no one else can. Jonas also has to take the responsibility of not sharing these amazing things with his friends, family, & community which is pretty difficult. He goes from seeing a dull, gray, and sad community to a happy, lively, and colorful community.]]> 2023-03-20 19:46:03 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524191972 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524192357 I would say that the most important takeaway was the memory of the elephant's death as it shows him a lot of things including the concept of death and guns. He also saw that there were different races and not everyone's skin was the same color. There was also the concept of sadness and grieving when he saw the other elephant cry for the dead one. This shows him that animals were not always imaginary creatures and once lived. This shows him that life is not all sweet]]> 2023-03-20 19:46:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524192357 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524192378 The most important and significant thing is when Jonas met The Giver.

Jonas is also fustrated that he can't share it because of sameness. Jonas is also annoyed at the fact that he doesn't have any choices. Jonas realizes this but doesn't accept it that well. He starts doing things that are wrong in that fit of anger. Jonas feels like the only person real, like the only person who knows the truth. ]]> 2023-03-20 19:46:30 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524192384 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524195927 I think the most significant takeaway from these chapters is that how Jonas's community can't see color, he thinks that it is very unfair as color means a choice. He also wants to make choices even they are small like choosing what to wear each day.]]> 2023-03-20 19:49:15 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524195927 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524229212 A takeaway from the past 5 chapters is how  Jonas is exeriancing life for the first time.  Jonas never experienced these things in.

I believe this because now he wants choices and wants the people in his community to experience the full experience of life such as color and sunshine and snow. He isn't satisfied like he was before when he became the Receiver of Memory. ]]> 2023-03-20 21:51:12 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299407 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299412 The most significant takeaway from these past 5 chapters is how Jonas learned about how society was before Sameness. Learning about colors, pain, and actual feelings is something that changed the way Jonas viewed his community. It is now causing him to doubt and become unsure of the rules they have set, and he's starting to become frustrated with how things are. ]]> 2023-03-20 21:51:12 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299412 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299592 I think that the most significant takeaway from the past 5 chapters was Jonas experiencing true pain and happiness and feelings for the first time. The life that he lived before was boring, colorless, the same. Now he knows what life used to be like, and how his life could've looked like. He's also frustrated with the people that made everyone's life the same.]]> 2023-03-20 21:51:26 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299592 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299601 The main idea that I took away from these chapters is there are genetic scientists who modify things such as taking away color to achieve "sameness." I think that this is important to the future of the story as Jonas begins to learn more about the past.]]> 2023-03-20 21:51:27 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299601 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299860 The most significant takeaway from chapters 9-13 is the fact that Jonas feels anger directed towards the people that decided to revert to Sameness. This is important because Jonas may do something rash or reckless, resulting in trouble forming in the story. ]]> 2023-03-20 21:51:51 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299860 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299926 I think the biggest takeaway of the past 5 chapters would be that Jonas is starting to be able to do and receive special things, such as memories, colors, and a specific set of rules. His perspective of the world is starting to change.]]> 2023-03-20 21:51:57 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524299926 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300015 The main takeaway from the past chapters that I have noticed is Jonas being able to start seeing colors, memories, and things that others were never able to. This is because Jonas has the ability to "see the Beyond" which is one of the many reasons he was actually chosen as reciever. He then trys to share this with other and get rid of the sameness that has been talked about throught the different chapters.]]> 2023-03-20 21:52:06 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300015 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300275 A takeaway from the past 5 chapters that I thought was the most significant was when he saw the color red for the first time. When Jonas found out that The Giver and Jonas are the only ones that can see colors, he gets confused and wonders why they are the only ones that are able to see colors. ]]> 2023-03-20 21:52:32 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300275 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300364 The most significant takeaway from the past five chapters is that Jonas is starting to learn about the world before Sameness.

There might not be pain and grief in his world, but you also can't experience joy. You can't experience color and beauty in that world. He thinks that a world of difference is better than Sameness.]]> 2023-03-20 21:52:42 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300377 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300428 My main takeaway of the last five chapters that we read is that choice is a powerful option. I think this is because if you could choose whatever you want you could cause chaos or not. It is a choice to think whether you want to think of something in someway or not.]]> 2023-03-20 21:52:48 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300428 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300452 My main takeaway from chapters 9-13 is how Jonas is changing maybe for the better, or the worse. His world is completely shattered upon learning about things like color, snow, downhill and pain like sunburns. He is also like the black sheep around his peers. They all act very strange and awkward around him. This is probably because in their eyes, he is special, unique, and because he will (I think) soon know a lot more, hence them being uncomfortable around him because they think that he may blurt or tell them something they don't want to know.]]> 2023-03-20 21:52:50 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300452 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300511 The most significant takeaway from the last 5 chapters in my opinion is when Jonas starts to understand life before the rules of sameness applied to his community. After he gets memories transferred from the Giver, he starts to understand joy, pain, and color. He gets increasingly angry that people in his community can't experience the life of making decisions and having variety in life.]]> 2023-03-20 21:52:56 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300511 ar96091 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300517 I think that the most significant takeaway from these past five chapters is the confinement and strict point of view that the Elders and the people in power of the Community put into place. People are missing out on so many things. Not only is everything relatively the same, but there is really only one viewpoint because there is no knowledge of a different way to think.]]> 2023-03-20 21:52:57 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300517 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300623 The most important takeaway from these chapters for me is Jonas taking on the new roles of the Receiver. First, he feels separate from all the other kids at the Assignment Ceremony. Now he can also be rude and lie, as well as ask any question he wants from people. Then, he feels pain for the first time when the Giver transfers a memory. He is starting to realize that he has the most honored position in the community. ]]> 2023-03-20 21:53:06 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300623 nb35772 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300676 The most significant takeaway in these past 5 chapters is how Jonas's emotions and feelings are starting to change. Jonas begins to get angry because Sameness removed what he thinks of as beautiful colors and choices. He also thinks that making choices and having colors brings out joy, and everything always being the same and so many rules makes him want all the things that were taken away due to Sameness. He believes that the people in power and people in the past made a mistake.]]> 2023-03-20 21:53:11 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300676 pk2968_2 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300769 The most significant takeaway from these past 5 chapters is that Jonas learns about and can see all the colors now. This is significant because Jonas now sees the world differently. This is significant because now Jonas is different from everyone else and everyone else is keeping their distance from them.]]> 2023-03-20 21:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524300769 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524301110 A takeaway from the past 5 chapters is that Jonas is learning about life before Sameness.  He now understands pain, joy, color, memories, and phenomenons before Sameness. This is making him frustrated when comparing his life with others and life before Sameness as he longs for everyone to be able to experience life before Sameness.]]> 2023-03-20 21:53:48 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524301110 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524301125 A takeaway that I had from chapters 9-13 is that Jonas is separating from the rest and becoming different than the others people in the community. He is now able to see different colors and act in a different way than all the other people. It would be hard to explain what Jonas is capable of since no one else has every experienced it before.]]> 2023-03-20 21:53:50 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524301125 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524301840 The most significant takeaway from chapters 9-13 is how the Giver's and the Receiver's life are different from other people in the community. Also how big of jobs the  Giver and the Receivers are. I don't think was chosen because of anything but his pale eyes.]]> 2023-03-20 21:54:50 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524301840 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524465315 I think the most significant takeaway is how Jonas is finally understanding how his community isn't perfect. The citizens don't have a choice and they don't get to see things like colors, and animals. ]]> 2023-03-21 00:57:00 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524465315 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524731198 In my opinion, I think the biggest take away from the past 5 chapters is that how Jonas is beginning to understand how life is under the government. They have taken away all the basic fundamentals of life, such as color, controlling emotions, climate control, etc. 

This is significant, because I infer later on the book Jonas will begin to think about running away. Maybe The Giver may support him and encourage him to start a new life without the government's controlling aspects. ]]> 2023-03-21 04:45:02 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2524731198 https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2529350472 The best takeaway of these last five chapters are how the giver and receivers lives are more exotic then other people with assignments. The receiver (Jonas) is not aloud to talk about his experience with the giver. He also has to carry more burdens and memories the other people with assignments. ]]> 2023-03-23 18:58:37 UTC https://padlet.com/bhill124/ovz02gdk189ildmh/wish/2529350472
