Between Man and Himself

This week the theme is personal values.  Why do you do what you do?  Every day, all of us have to make lots of little choices. We hope that they live up to what we think our values, but we all know that it doesn’t always happen the way we want it to.

Anyway, enough with the serious stuff.  This game can be adapted to suit all ages and all attention spans.

Goals: To learn about the life of Miriam; To think about the repercussions of what we say and how we say it – Lashon Hara.
