Zohar+Raviv+at+CFJE+Summer+Institute

Here are my notes from Zohar's amazing talk. I thought we could share practical ideas we are trying to implement in our schools in response to his challenge.

Some ideas (please add more): Post excerpts of Bnai Mitzvah Speeches on the website each week Do individual faculty Jewish learning plans for the year with each faculty member

I think the message that the words of our students are important is one that we should each share with our Rabbis so they can join us in showing that those words are important.) Imagine the power of a student getting a little note from the Rabbi saying "I heard your idea regarding ....... and was very impressed. Keep up the good work." They may not share the words as part of a sermon but can recognize the value of the thoughts none-the-less. Alan
