Rededicate Yourself as a Teacher

 

In  this week and next week’s Dor L’Dor, I will be including some articles for a monthly magazine called, Educational Leadership.  Please  take time to read and learn from them, I would not have included them if  I didn’t think that you would find them  useful.   Think about your year thus far.   How have you  invited your students to learn and how have you made their Jewish education special and  memorable.

 

Thank you for taking the time to read these, I look forward to your responses and would even welcome the opportunity to publish any written responses to these articles.

 

 

Well, the rumors are true, I paid up my $5.00 to Martha because I lost the bet.  We will not be moving  back to the Temple for classes until the 15th of January.  That  will be our first Wednesday classes held in the actual building.  This means that our first Sunday will be January 19th.  Not only will this be our first Sunday, but there will be 250 teenagers at our synagogue, all of your ma’aseh will be gone, attending a NFTY event, and we will be having a famous musician Peri Smilow  coming to perform and work with some of the classes. Check out her website  http://www.geocities.com/~perismilow/

Please have them completed by this Sunday, December 8.  The goal of the Progress Report is not only to inform the parents of their child’s behavior in class, but also to inform the parents of what is being taught in class and what their child’s specific Judaic interests happen to be.  Please be honest, constructive and informative.  For suggestions on how to phrase your comments please, call me, email me or visit this website.
