In "The Giver"  in the Ceremonies you get something new from the community each new Ceremony. On birthdays you get presents from friends and family.]]> 2018-04-18 18:28:16 UTC https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/253152964 kiera_gregory https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/255796594 In the Sneetches some of them had stars on their bellies but some did not. Which means they are not the same. But they are still equal to each other. They are still appreciate each other.

In the "Giver" Jonas's life is going to change just like an apple. He is going to be a 12. Also he is going to get a job that he has to do for the rest of his life. And start new beginnings just like the apple did.]]> 2018-04-27 17:53:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/256115933 kiera_gregory https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/256127395 There are rules that are harsh for some kids and harsh rules for adults.

Like in the "The Shakers" Utopia they had to adopted kids and their families are not blood related. In Jonas's Utopia they have the same thing. In some other community their life is planned out for them and their life is not fair like Jonas's.]]> 2018-05-08 18:38:23 UTC https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/259047874 kiera_gregory https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/259051012 I do not think their Utopia will survive much longer because they have so many things the same in the failed Utopia's that did not work out. Or maybe they will because they have some rules that are different so they might be able to go on.]]> 2018-05-08 18:45:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/259051012 kiera_gregory https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/261328055 The receiver's house is different then the other houses in the community because he has higher honer then everyone else in the community.

Then the memory will come to you and you will feel the sensation that the memory is transmitting to you. The first memory that Jonas receives is the memory of snow.]]> 2018-05-16 18:06:04 UTC https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/261335145 kiera_gregory https://padlet.com/kiera_gregory/KieraGregoryGiverTwitter/wish/261338216 This quote means that Jonas does not know that there were worlds before him and his utopia. Also, that there were so many different people that live in different worlds. No, this is not a good way to live because people in this utopia should know that there were other worlds and other people.
