"Here we found a path (on
which) we can all walk
together," Rabbi Cohn said.
Rabbi Aft added, "It brings
the Reconstructionist, Or-
thodox and Conservative
viewpoints together. It shows
we have more in common and
less that separates us."
The Family Living Room
gives Cohn "the opportunity
of Jewish Americans' achieve-
ments and customs will find
a feast in JEWISH TIMES."

opportunity to come to them!'
For Rabbi Aft, the Family
Living Room allows the UHS,
which has a Conservative
Jewish orientation, to serve
the entire Jewish community.
Mrs. Appleman said she
hopes the program will pro-
vide inspiration to Jewish
families to study together.
She said she hoped the
Jewish Welfare Federation
will use the Family Living
Room model in its leadership
development programs "as a
vehicle to pass down to their
kids. It is a wonderful oppor-
tunity for the communtiy to
get involved in something ex-
citing!'
The program has already
proven to the Brookenthals
that it can be fun and ex-
citing. "I'm fascinated by the
way they run the program, "
Mrs. Brookenthal said. For
Heidi, the Family Living
Room was "great — it was
fun, too!'
And in a subtle manner it
also taught a little Ibrah, and
for Rabbi Cohn, "that's what
it's all about!"

Chicago Meeting
A
Chicago
"Kaleidoscope: Vision of
Jewish Education" is the
theme of the National
Association of Temple
Educators Conference to be
held in Chicago from Dec.
22-26.
N.A.T.E. is the professional
organization of more than 600
men and women from
Canada, England, Israel, the
Republic of South Africa and
the United States, who are
the educators, principals, rab-
bis and cantors responsible

gregations affiliated with the

school and congregation.
Highlighting the con-
ference will be a talk by Ben-
jamin S. Bloom, professor of
education at the University of
Chicago and Northwestern
University. Dr. Bloom concep-
tualized the theory of
mastery learning and has
been a major force in the
development of many mastery
learning programs.
Rabbi Alexander M.
Schindler, president of the
U.A.H.C., will speak on "Vi-
sions for Our Congregation!'
Participants will also hear
Myriam Mendelow, founder
