Hi Students,
I have two questions that I would like you to answer about Chapter 3 in "The Giver." Please write your responses on a separate sheet of paper and hand it in to me on Thursday, Feb. 9th.
Question 1
We've talked about individualism (putting value on the differences among people; encouraging independent ideas and thoughts) during the past two weeks. I'd like you to reflect on the idea of individualism and the community in which Jonas and his family live.
Based on what we've read so far, do you think that people in the community value individualism? Use examples from Chapter 3 to help support your answer. If you need a hint, look at p. 23.
Question 2
We've also talked a bit about discipline (control of other people's behavior). What examples of discipline have you seen so far in "The Giver?" You can use examples from chapter 3 or other chapters (1-2) for this question.
Extra Credit (Optional!)
Why did Jonas take the apple home?
If you don't understand these questions, please let me know tomorrow (Wednesday).
Good luck!
