Chapter 7


Today was an independent reading of Chapter 7. How did you do? Did you read carefully? Did you remember how to answer the open ended question?

In the chapter, Jonas is waiting for his assignment to be given to him. (when his number "19" is called) The Chief Elder talks to the crowd about the Ceremony of Twelve being a celebration of differences, the only time when being "different" is a good thing in this community. Jonas' group mates get their assignments one by one and Jonas is not really surprised by any of them. Asher receives the assignment of Assistant Recreation Director. Fiona is Caretaker of the Old.
When it is Jonas' turn....the Chief Elder skips his number! Jonas wonders what had he done wrong?
