Teaches Prepare
With Workshops

JILL DAVIDSON SKLAR STAFF WRITER

S

ome more ready than oth-
ers, about 80 teachers from
the area congregational
and Jewish day schools
piled into workshops Sunday to
take "A Taste of Honey."
The educators sampled a se-
lection of five workshops at the
Agency for Jewish Education
building in Southfield in the first
mini-conference of the year spon-
sored by AJE. The purpose of the
program was to help the teach-
ers prepare themselves and their
classrooms for the start of the
school year.
The workshops, a part of the
Nirim professional enrichment
program, began with the educa-
tors each taking a piece of honey
cake and reciting a blessing over
it. The practice is a part of an old
Jewish custom whereby children
were given honey with their first
lesson in an effort to make learn-
ing sweet.
Also, because the program fell
on the second day of Rosh
Chodesh for the month of Elul,
the participants learned a song
to use in the classroom and then
listened to the blowing of the sho-
far.
Following the brief introduc-
tion, the participants headed into
five classrooms where the 2 1/2-
\ —, hour workshops were held.
In Nira Lev's classroom, edu-
cators learned the first three
weeks of the school year are cru-
cial to the outcome of the year.
Her workshop, titled "Getting Off
To A Good Start: Creating a Pos-
itive Environment for Learning
Hebrew Prayer," stressed the im-
\ _.„ portance of being prepared.
"The first three weeks we have
to put not 100 percent of our en-
ergy, but 120 percent of our en-
ergy into creating the classroom
we want to have in the spring,"
Ms. Lev said.
Down the hall, Shawn Locke
was explaining the importance of
having a prepared classroom
when the students come to class
as a part of her presentation on
"Planning for a Sweet Year."
`This gives the students the ex-
pectation that if I am prepared,
they should be prepared," she
said.
Other workshop subjects ad-
dressed the importance of broad-
ening teaching approaches to
reach all children's learning
styles, using proactive discipline
and working with music to bring
a classroom alive.
For the participants, the work-
shops were a valuable experience.
"I can't go to all of them," said
Amy Rose, a teacher from Tem-
ple Israel. "I wish I could go to one
after the other after the other." ❑

ARAFAT'S HATE TALK

Videos of speeches by PLO leader YASSIR ARAFAT this past June and July confirm that the goal of
the Palestine Liberation Organization is the destruction of Israel.

■ In one speech, he repeatedly chanted: The soul and blood we shall sacrifice for thee, Palestine".
Also: "The commitment still stands and the oath is still valid: that we will continue this long JIHAD
(Islamic holy war), this difficult JIHAD, this arduous JIHAD via death, via battles"...
■ He describes the "peace"accords as one phase of the PLO's 1974 "Strategy of Phases" for
destroying Israel step by step...

■ He praises and glorifies DALAL MARVIVI, the Arab woman who was killed in 1978 leading the ter-
rorist massacre of 37 Israelis on the Tel Aviv highway bus: "One of the heroes... This is a
Palestinian woman we are proud of"...
■ He repeatedly calls HAMAS leaders SHEIKA AHMED YASSIN and MOUSA ABU MARZOOK as
"brothers"...

■ He declared, "We will continue on this path until a Palestinian boy or girl waves the flag of
Palestine over the walls of Jerusalem, its mosques and its churches."...
