My Jewish studies project
My Jewish studies project I wanted to help out teachers since they have a lot of work on their hands. So what I did is I started helping the health teacher by making ice bags and cleaned up her office. So she can find the band-aids or ice pack for people that are hurt. After helping my school’s health teacher I wanted to help more by helping out my social studies teacher, who wanted to move stuff back into the old math room. It is really fun to help my teacher out I got also credit and more respect around the school environment, I also got to ride one of the schools carts in the hallway ( really fun). Helping my teachers out with some of the work was the greatest feeling I’ve ever had. It wasn’t like when I helped poor people it was like I was growing more in my school’s community, which means a lot to me. But overall I got a really good feeling from it and I also helped out my teachers and leaving them from a lot of stress. This affects how I relate to God by doing some of the 360 mitzvot of the Torah.
This is a really interesting post Coby. It’s great to hear about how you helped your teachers and how you felt doing it! You did a nice job explaining your thoughts. I’m sure your teachers appreciated our effort and enjoyed working with you. Thanks for sharing this great information!

Coby, I love how you approached this. You thought of a BIG idea (that feeling part of a community is a way to be connected to God), and then did small actions to reach your goal. Now that it’s been a few weeks, have you been able to continue this practice? Do you feel more connected to the community at school?
