Rabbi Yoel Kahn Educator: Debra Sagan Massey www.bethelberkeley.org Congregation Beth El will be enhancing our Saturday morning programming, focusing on our Shabbat Family School (Chug Mishpacha) and creating an intergenerational b’nei mitzvah tutoring program. In 5770, we ran a pilot year of Chug Mishpacha in which 20 families participated regularly on Saturday mornings. This program is instead of the midweek after-school program, and requires parent participation. Each week, children and adults study in parallel classes, as well as together. The curriculum is based on an annual theme, and also includes music, art and t’fillah. We are also planning on developing an intergenerational Torah tutoring program for our current Torah study participants who come on Saturday mornings and our b’nei mitzvah students. Our goal is to enhance our Shabbat morning t’fillot by encouraging more people to at Beth El on Shabbat mornings and engaging in Jewish learning.
