November 3
- The Giver Jonas experienced a bad memory, his memory is he fell on a snow covered of mountains and his leg was broken. When he woke up the pain was still there, it remained for the whole day. Jonas offer to take Gabriel in his room so his parents can get a good night sleep. When Gabriel is fussy Jonas pats his back to sooth him while he patting his back Jonas think about sailing boat in a boat on a lake he passes that memory to Gabriel. This scares Jonas.

November 9
- The Giver Jonas didn't want the memory of the warfare and he didn't want to be The receiver of the memory, but he has to. The Giver then gave him a lots of good memories, because he felt so bad for having to share the war memories. The Giver share with him the memory of Christmas and Love witch is his favorite memory. Jonas really like this memory he wish their world could be like that. Then he went home he ask his parents if they love him and they said that word is meaningless. They ask Jonas if he understand what they meant and Jonas said Yes! He lied again. The Elders declare a holiday Jonas goes to find his friends to play with them. He finds them and they're playing a war game. This really upsets Jonas and he asks them to stop. They're confused with Jonas because his got mad with them playing the war game. They don't realize they're playing a game of war. Jonas realize that his friends can't understand how he feels because they don't have memories. Jonas's father has to choose between a set of twins, which one will stay and which one will be released.

Question
- Do you consider Jonas world " advanced? Why or Why not? Explain. Jonas world is advance in many areas. The rules of the community keeps everyone organized and structured. People are not given choices, their lives are totally planned out for them. With them having no memories, feelings or choices they only know present Ideas. Every thing is safe in their world. That's why I think Jonas world more advanced than ours.

N ovember 19
- The Giver 18-20 Jonas want to know about Rosemary. Jonas really like the name and he want to know many about Rosemary she was the Giver before Jonas, but she was release she was released, because the memory the the Giver gave to her is to painful and she didn't survive so she decided to be released. Jonas can't do what Rosemary did because it's in his rules, because all the memories will go back to the people so even if he can't do it he have to do it because he have no choice. Jonas suggest a plan to have an accident by jumping to the river to be released and Jonas said he a good swimmer the Giver said it's to dangerous and besides Jonas can swim and even the Giver gave him a warning he said but I'm the good swimmer and the Giver said just stay away from the river. This is about releasing. Jonas want to know what are they doing when the releasing is start. Jonas really want to know about releasing ceremony and what are they doing. The Giver show to him what are they doing and Jonas see some of the people are killed using needles, but some of the people are living on their country. In Chapter 19 the baby has being released because his weight is lower than the other twin and they can't have two people look the same.

November 20
- The Giver 21-23. Jonas leaves his community and he took Gabriel too. It is a very bad choice. They ride on the bike. They eat the food that Jonas robbed. They go somewhere else and they don't have a destination. They heard an engine that they think it's a air plane and they continued to ride on the bike. Jonas feel the pain on his ankle and they go where the engine can't hear and they see a falls, Gabriel sees a bird and he said" plane! plane!" they drink and they go again. Jonas feel the pain on his knees and arms he tried to forget it. Jonas feels the cold and Gabriel too they're two getting cold. Jonas said to Gabriel" Gabe it's a snow". Jonas tries to make Gabe remember the sunshine and good memories but he can't, because his losing the memories he was given. He is not the receiver of the memory anymore. Jonas reach the summit of the mountain and he think what they need to do and he remember the sled that was in his memory ans then they ride they coming so fast! fast! fast! and they reach the bottom of the mountain. He heard music back at the community that Jonas think there's a person but it's only an echo, Jonas has disappointed.

Written Response Question:
November 20,09 Reading Response Is it an optimistic ending? Does Jonas and Gabe survive? - I don't think so, because the writer didn't give enough information to say if it's good or bad, but I think it's not good! NO!, I don't think they survive, and I think Jonas is been punished for running away from his community and responsibility living everyone else with their memories. Reading Journal Response Question: Explain who the protagonist (main character) is by describing their appearance as well behavior? = Jonas his a boy and he is twelve years old his a good person and he is the receiver of the memory.
