Eretz Yisrael

To give the chanichim an experience which will help them comprehend what it is like to live in an oppressive society and remind them to appreciate their own freedom.

To discuss how

Israel should deal with the mass aliyah from the former

USSR,

Ethiopia… and how we must relate to new olim.

Review the history and struggle to free Soviet Jewry, discuss the mass Aliya of Russian Jewry; explain the joys and problems of absorbing so many new olim

This booklet is a suggestion for a short activity that is aimed for gaining basic information about Israel. We chose three of the themes that will appear in the game.

Preparing the students for the activity is very important. Playing the game will be easier and much more fun when the students know what they are asked about…

You can add some more activities or give your students a brief explanation about the other subjects in the game. Which are –

1.      Israel wining Olympic medals.

2.  Famous people in Israel, such as prime minister Ariel Sharon, David Ben–Gurion

3.  The wars in Israel.

4.  Operation Entebbe 

5.  Israelis and the Olympic games in Munich 1977

Good luck!!!!!!
