Grades: 4–6 T’fillati-Making Prayer Mine is a new way to help students look at personal meaning in individual prayers. While it is an important goal for learners to be able to decode liturgy and fully participate in a worship service, it is equally or even more important for worshippers to connect with the meaning of each prayer.
T’fillati-Making Prayer Mine guides students to explore personal connections to the central ideas of prayers and Torah and Midrash to help them forge connections with the words of our liturgy.
Students using T'fillati will have the opportunity to
- find ways to manifest Jewish values
- explore the concept of “brit”
- connect the choreography of the prayers with personal meaning
- consider the notion that God has always helped us and will continue to help us
- examine the apparent contrast between the Oneness of God and acknowledging that everyone will have different ideas about God
- create new versions of liturgy
- record conversations with God
This lesson explores the prayers of T'fillati Ahavah Rabbah and Ahavat Olam, which are recited during the evening and day services, respectively. These prayers focus on expressing love for God and discussing the differences between temporal and everlasting love. Students will learn about their relationship with God and how they can become God's partner. The lesson also dives into the significance of being at Mount Sinai and receiving the Torah.
