Homework assigned: read chapter 16, 17 and 18 for homework.
We reviewed two of the themes of the novel: the necessity of having, remembering, and learning from unpleasant memories; the importance of being given choice in our lives.
We read quietly for a while and then we discussed and defined the term IMAGERY. After a pink worksheet on imagery, students were given a writing assignment where they will pretend that they are Jonas and that the Giver is giving them a descriptive memory. This writing assignment won't be due until next week some time.
Paragraphs are still needed from Angus, Chase and Brooke.
