    This is a website I have recommended to interfaith families that I have in my Practice. So many time when a baby enters into a marriage I become a resource for the "how to's" : How do we have a naming, what is a Bris, how do we name him/her appropriately ? I know it sounds crazy but as an OB/GYN Dr. I do A LOT of Jewish Teaching!

    Explore Jewish Life and Judaism at My Jewish Learning, a trans-denominational website of information about Judaism. I find this website useful for students to look up basic information about many topics. It has been especially useful with our international Chinese students who have no background in Judaism, Jewish history or often, western religion at all.

    Yom Kippur tools that could be used with preschoolers and elementary kids. The make a mirror project I think would even be good to use with teens.

    I think PJ Library does a great thing for the youngest generation by sending stories monthly. It starts them out at a young age being invested in Judaism. But it is not always books. Sometimes it is CDs as well! I know my son looks forward to receiving his book each month.

    I also love the PJ Library. What a simple but profound idea! All our kids five and below get the books. My two kids get it too and when they were younger they actually looked forward to the books each month. On their site they actually go up until 8 and below. Age appropriate books and CD's. I think they also sent us a DVD one time. Very multi-media and worthwhile. In Tulsa, it's run through our Federation and it costs them $40 per child per year to sponsor it. Our families love it. One issue though: At our Synagogue we have a full time preschool with 110 kids. Very big for Tulsa and we have a long waiting list. Literally. NAECY accredited and 3 stars. It's a fantastic school. I supervise the preschool director and we have a great relationship. The rub is that of the 110 kids, only a handful are Jewish, like 8 or 9 of them. So we have 100 kids here in the building learning about the universal themes of Judaism all week long, 7:30-5:30, and they are not Jewish. It's not that they are trying to be Jewish. It's just that our program is so great. So when I asked Federation and the PJ Library if they could be included, they said no. Even if the Synagogue paid for it. Boo-hoo. I wish there was an exception that could be made and all kids who go to Jewish schools, whether they are Jewish or non-Jewish, could get the PJ Library. What do you think?

    I completely agree with you, sort of. I think anyone who attends a Jewish school (Jewish or not) should be able to receive the PJ Library books. However, having worked for a little bit of time for the PJ Library in my area, the reason that they won't allow non-Jews to receive the books even if someone else pays for it, is because only a certain number of books are allocated per town that participates in PJ Library. If non-Jews receives those books, there is a chance that the Jews in your area will not receive the books.

    I see what you are saying about running out of books and I've heard that same perspective from someone who worked for PJ Library when they were at the ISJL conference. But I think if Harold Grinspoon heard that they were concerned with running out of books, they could solve that problem pretty quickly. I understand that the children who go to our Synagogue preschool are mainly non-Jewish and I'm not saying they should become members or anything. Getting the book would be nice but they are okay with out it. Each fall I check in with my federation executive to see if there should be any updates for the PJ library list. It is so generous and it works!

    The Vitality of the Hebrew Language What are the secrets of its survival? This article is excerpted from William Chomsky's magnum opus Hebrew: The Eternal Language, first published in 1957. Reprinted with permission from the Jewish Publication Society. How we can use Hebrew today. Teaching Hebrew to our students.
  • Eliyahu Krigel on 31 Jul 13
     
    Yes we can use Hebrew! Reminds me of the Dali Lama meeting with the Rabbis and asking how did Judaism survive while in exile for 2000. One answer is Hebrew. I think Hebrew plays a big role in our continuity. It's a language we can all use for prayer and now as the every day language in Israel. I want my own children to know Hebrew so they can pray in Hebrew and read seferim, chant Torah/Haftarah, and study gemara. They have a ways to go but have to put it out there and I also realize it has to come directly from them too. Thanks for the good reference and link.

Jewish adult learning B'nai Mitzvah

    They say that no matter what happens, at the end of your wedding day the goal is to be married. I find the same to be true for a Bar/Bat Mitzvah. At the end of the day you are a Jewish adult. You will be held to higher standards. It does not matter if you only have an aaliyah to the Torah or if you lead the whole thing. The point is you have reached adulthood in Judaism and you need to start acting like it.

    You are a Jewish adult, then you go back to middle school! Seriously though, I really love myjewishlearning.com. I use it all the time for references and articles. The articles make a lot of sense and speak to a wide yet focused and community. I also appreciate how even though it keeps it serious, it remains consistent in its respectful approach to pluralism. In terms of the adult b'nai mitzvah, we have a class at the Synagogue for just this type of thing. We use Hineni Prayerbook Hebrew for Adults through Behrman House. People can take the class even if they don't schedule an actual adult bar or bat mitzvah. The ceremonies are really quiet special....it's never too late. And there's also the tradition of every 70 years having a bar or bat mitzvah which also has lots of potential. We all should live so long!
