Making T'filah Meaningful V'ahavta

Students will dig deeply into the meanings of prayers, and explore questions like: Why do we pray? What meaning can prayer bring to our lives? How does prayer relate to our lives?

Through study of specific Jewish prayers they will explore themes of gratitude, love, kindness, holiness, mindfulness, comfort, respect, family, and community.

Learning activities include text study, lively discussion, mindfulness activities, games, role-playing, creating videos, and more. Students will work in chevruta (partners), in small groups, and individually. This is not a Hebrew prayer product, although it can supplement a Hebrew class. It can also be used in t’filah time.
