volved with your child's enjoy-
ment of the museum. Avoid
the "love me-love my
museum" syndrome.
• Don't expect miracles.
The museum exhibits do not
sing, dance or jump around
like video creatures. "Muse-
umizing" your child may take
time.
As your child's museum
guide, you are likely to find
an enhanced enjoyment as
you answer your child's ques-
tions. This shared sense of
delight in learning is a great
gift that goes far beyond the
museum's walls. ❑

Beth Shalom Educator
Receives Award

Neil Rosenbaum,
Brian Rosenbaum
"Hi. I'm Neil Rosenbaum.
I've got a lot of friends,
but my brother Brian is
always around and he'll
do whatever I tell him to
do. He's great to bury in
the sand at the beach.
He's easy to tackle, flip
over and use his head to
bounce balls on. And he
keeps coming back for
more."

Samuel Semp, Congrega-
tion Beth Shalom Religous
School teacher was awarded
the 1990 Schochet Family
Outstanding Teacher Award,
sponsored by the Frank and
Freda Schochet Fund of
United Jewish Charities.
Semp, who also serves as
Beth Shalom's Ritual Direc-
tor, received this honor for his
development of a curriculum
for seventh graders on Jewish
morals and ethics. The Scho-
chet prize is to be used to fund
a project in the area of Jewish
learning and teaching. It is

administered in partnership
with the Jewish Welfare
Federation.
Congregation Beth Shalom

experienced teaching staff.
Religious school classes are
supplemented by cultural en-
hancement programs, mean-
ingful forums on contempo-
rary issues, Junior Congrega-
tion, Junior Choir and a
weekly Torah reading tisch

baum. Additional individual-
ized instruction is also pro-
vided to assist children in
davening skills and effective
prayerbook use.

entire community. Cyril
