I think it's pretty important because it shows one of the things the Elders may want to keep out of the minds of the people in "The community" seriously you don't want people knowing about the horror Jonas saw.-Andrew
Maybe it was important because it caused the giver a lot of pain, and it kind of seemed like the giver had some personal connection to that memory. It was also probably the most painful memory Jonas had received yet, even though it was not all physical pain, I think it was more mentally painful to see people and animals dieing, and it was probably horrifying to Jonas to think about that happening in his own community.-Bonnie
as much anticipated, Jonas has experienced: Warfare! This is an extreme burden to carry in such a serene community. It may very well be a factor in what is needed for Jonas to begin the spark of a revolution against Sameness!!,!!! !!11
I think it is important because it shows him physical as well as mental pain (as we discussed in class) But also to me it seems like there is going to be some kind of revolt in the book and Jonas will be able to avoid it going as far as it was in the memory. ~ Michaela
I think the memory in chapter 15 that Jonas received might actually cause Jonas to not start a revolution. Like Bonnie said, he wouldn't want to have something as terrible as that (war) happen in his own community.
I think it is important because this is kind of the beginning of pain (other than the broken leg and stuff) and Jonas is beginning to know what the chief elder means by "you are very brave" and "this will be painful" ~Ella
I feel like this chapter sort of told me "I told ya so!" because of my revolt thing because now that Jonas has seen what warfare causes he wont want to get into anything like that. But this book is by a good author so you never know if things could dramatically change! ~Hayden
I think it was important because like everyone else said, now he understands what revolution and rebellion really is. Like Hayden said he now knows the effects and consequences of war and he might not want to get as involved it as before.He doesn't want to ruin his "serene"(as Chris said) community. ~Caroline D
I agree with Caroline, Hayden, and Chris. Now since Jonas knows about war he'll look upon many things differently some things that he may've thought of as funny and happy may look horrifying and scary. He also wouldn't want the "serene" (As Carol and Chris said) community to be affected by a revolt or war.-Andy Roo (Andrew)
I don't think it was that important but it could have a deeper meaning than I think it does- jenny

ReplyDeleteI think it is important because it gives deeper information on what kind of pain the giver goes through and what pain he will go through.-jact

ReplyDeleteIt is on of the most important because he learns the pain before the Sameness and bridges into chapter 16 or 17 where Fiona and Asher play war.
