Print: $32.25 Curriculum Goals:
1. To make Sefer Dabarim relevant and inspiring to students’ lives by bringing out the ethical and halakhic principles embedded in the Sefer.
2. To pay close attention to Debarim’s structure and to place each of its sections within the structure. This helps students understand and remember the book as a whole as well as appreciate the importance of each section. Using a Tanakh Shalem will facilitate this goal.
3. To help students distinguish between peshat and derash.
4. To include all those elements from tradition Jewish day school education that are important for “cultural literacy.”
5. To help students gain skills so that they can learn Humash and Rishonim on their own.
6. To encourage group work, student participation, use of multimedia – maps, charts, diagrams, Powerpoint, and other modern techniques of teaching without lecturing.
