Again and Again Contrasts and Contradictions AHA Moment The Giver Chapters 4-5 Tough Questions Words of the Wiser Memory Moment
C & C The freedom to choose where to spend those hours had always seemed a wonderful luxury to Jonas; other hours of the day were so carefully arranged. p.26
Aha! Jonas brightened. He knew about the pills. His parents both took them each morning. And some of his friends did, he knew. p.38 Pedaling rapidly down the path, Jonas felt oddly proud to have joined those who took the pills. p. 39
Again and Again The book keeps reiterating the words community. Maybe something will happen with it like it won t be a community at all. It also is focusing on training and volunteer hours. Maybe it is building up to Jonas s assignment.
Tough ? Jonas slowed the strokes of his hand on her back thoughtfully. Larissa, he asked, what happens when they make the actual release? Where exactly does Roberto go? p. 32 Larissa doesn t know either. Does anyone?
Words of the Wiser Finally she sat down beside him at the table. Jonas, she said with a smile, the feeling you describes as the wanting/ It was your first Stirrings. Father and I have been expecting it to happen to you. It happens to everyone. It happened to Father when he was your age. And it happened to me. It will happen someday to Lily. p.37 Jonas is growing up.
Memory Moment He paused. He knew he had to tell it all, that it was not only right but necessary to tell all of a dream. So he forced himself to relate the part that made him uneasy. p.36 This is the first feeling he is sharing with his family that makes him uncomfortable. I also wonder if he and Fiona will be boyfriend and girlfriend.
