Parshat Shavua

The point of this shiur is to teach the chanichim about various leadership qualities, and to show them examples in Tanach where these leadership skills are used by different characters. Therefore the goals of this shiur are threefold:

 To discuss with the chanichim various traits a leader should possess and why these traits are so crucial.

To use the examples in Tanach as jumping off points for discussing contexts when these traits should be put into use. Try to think of other examples in their lives where this particular leadership trait would need to be employed.

To show the chanichim how the Tanach is not boring, but active and engaging, full of situations and characters that we can relate to and identify with. The characters in Tanach should be seen by the chanichim as “leader role models” that they can identify with and strive to imitate.

To teach lessons in life. To motivate.

Objective

To learn about the keilim in the Mishkan and where they were placed.

To teach the chanachim how

Israel is on a higher level than any other place just because God said so.

Being that Sunday is the 10 B'Tevet, we would like the chanachim to be confronted with the question: why is remembering important?
