heres a brief summary about it
Jonas receives the memories of the past, good and bad, from the current Receiver, a wise old man who tells Jonas to call him the Giver. The Giver transmits memories by placing his hands on Jonas's bare back. The first memory he receives is of an exhilarating sled ride.
Which ideas do you want to share in a literary discussion?
idk can you help are do you have an idea?
As a Connector, your role was to find connections between the text and other related works. The Giver has several themes and topics that can be connected to various other literary works. One idea that would be worthy to share in a literary discussion about The Giver is the theme of dystopia. You can explain how The Giver portrays a dystopian society where individual freedom and emotions are suppressed in order to maintain stability. You can connect this theme to other dystopian novels such as 1984 by George Orwell or Brave New World by Aldous Huxley.
Another idea that would be valuable to discuss is the concept of memory and its importance in society. In The Giver, memories are selectively erased and only the Receiver of Memory holds the collective memories of the past. This idea can be connected to other works that explore the significance of memory, such as The Memory Police by Yoko Ogawa or Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.
As a Summarizer, your role was to recap and summarize the key points and events in the text. This helped you gain a deeper understanding of the plot, characters, and overall message of the novel. By summarizing the main events in The Giver, such as Jonas being chosen as the new Receiver of Memory, his training and mentorship with The Giver, and his eventual escape from the community, you were able to grasp the progression of the story and the challenges faced by the characters.
In summary, your roles as a Connector and a Summarizer helped you understand more about The Giver by exploring themes like dystopia and the importance of memory, and by summarizing the key events in the plot. These activities enabled you to analyze the novel from different angles and gain a deeper appreciation for its themes and messages.
Sorry, but I haven't read "The Giver."

That "summary" isn't enough for me to help you with this assignment.
