Our siyyum (commencement) is just two months away! We discussed that while their Gesher commencement is a significant
milestone marking the culmination of their Temple Israel Religious School
education, it is also a fork in the road.
And of each student we ask, how
will you continue to nourish your Jewish souls?
We reviewed Pirkei Avot 4: 1
Who
is wise? One who learns from all
people.
Who
is mighty? One who overcomes his/her
impulses.
Who
is rich? One who is satisfied with
his/her portion.
Who
is worthy of honor? One who honors all
people.
And we wondered about these as
possible personality types like the four children in the Haggadah (wise, wicked, simple and the one who does not know how to
ask). If each of these (wise, mighty,
rich and honorable) asked a question at the seder,
what would he/she ask?
Gesher
students worked in pairs to create video commentaries on Pirkei Avot 4:1 in which each pair focused
on once personality type.
