Product description

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

T'fillati Torah Blessings explores the understanding behind and the choreography of Aliyah. Students consider the concept of choosing and chosenness as reflected in traditional text and the Reconstructionist movement's modification of the text. The lesson also focuses on the Torah blessings and how the present tense text helps students understand that the Torah is received daily.

Each lesson is sold in packs of five copies per title.

  1. T'fillati: Barekhu 
  2. T'fillati: Shema
  3. T'fillati: V'ahvata
  4. T'fillati: Mi Khamokha
