Falcons we are nearing the third week of the second six weeks. This week we will finish reading "The Giver" and then start with "Esperanza Rising."
Jonas has stopped taking the pill for the stirrings and is beginning to feel all the emotions that were taken away from them. He had his first experience of not being able to ask for medication. The ceremony of twelve is coming up again and he hopes that Gabriel will be named and given to a family unit. His father says it depends on his sleep pattern and so far Gabriel still cries during the night. Jonas does not want him to be released.
The Giver gave Jonas the memory of love between family and Jonas would like for everyone to experience--love. He asked his parents if they loved him and they chastised for using improper language.
Do you all feel that his parents will ever be capable of knowing what love is?
