•Our lives and actions express our values and it is important to think about what are good values. Part of being Jewish is being mindful that the way we live reflects our values. •It is most important to do the right thing whether or not you are doing it for the right reason (What a person does is more important than what s/he thinks). •Tell us about some of the heroes/heroines you learned about and what they did that was special? What are some of the good things they did? •Did you like learning about these people? (follow up answer to get to content) •Are there things you do even when you don’t want to? Was it good that you did them? •Based on the stories they have just told, pick out one and ask if the good actions were taken because the hero wanted to or in spite of what the hero wanted to do. When should you do what you don’t want to? First grade emphasizes how Jews express their values in their daily lives. Students will be exposed to heroes and heroines who exemplify positive Jewish values. They will look for examples within their family and friends, teachers and classmates. They will also explore the values and heroes/heroines associated with secular Jewish holidays and observances. The preferred source for curriculum material will be literature and other materials about post-biblical times up through the Middle Ages. Students will also explore what it was like for Jews to live during those times.
