Today: 1) Class will discuss Chapter #15. Why do you believe this memory was so painful for the Giver to keep? Why is it important for Jonas to receive painful memories such as this one? Why is it important for Jonas to also receive happy memories?
2) Class will begin reading Chapter #16. How does the memory of Christmas make Jonas feel? How is Jonas beginning to understand the concept of love? Why has Jonas’ society not allowed the presence of love?
