Am Yisrael

Teach chanachim how we are all different and how we should respect each other

Objective:

(1)    The chanichim will discuss the different ways in which one can fulfill the role of being an Or Lagoyim.

(2)    The chanichim will realize that they can affect change in the world, and will think of an Or Lagoyim project that they can implement in Camp this summer.

Goal: to teach the kinderlach more about Ben Adam l’chavero and specifically teamwork. Sure one or two people can make or break a team but that’s not the point and we don’t want them finding that out for at least two or three years. Most of it is gonna be games that they can play and the message of those games is teamwork. If the kids aren’t bright enough to understand the game at least make sure they understand the message.

Explain to the chanichim that we can always be free if we have our most important freedom – our bchira chofshit

1. To show the chanichim that they have already been taught certain stereotypes about other groups within Judaism.2. To try to understand the truth behind these stereotypes and to focus on positives aspects of other groups so that we can better relate to them.
