Submission Required
Students rotate through posted school and community rules, mark each one as fair, unfair, or unclear with sticky notes, and add a brief reason naming who benefits, who is affected, and whose voice may be missing. The class then uses turn-and-talks and a short whole-group debrief to connect the rules to early situations in The Giver and introduce the question of who gets to decide fair rules. Students begin an evidence tracker with one school/community rule, one early novel connection, and one open question they want to investigate.
