Here is my Reflection for My Teffillah Elective:

Describe what you have been doing in your elective. I have been doing glee club for Teffillah which is where you sing Jewish Songs together as a group. My group specifically is focusing on Shabbat Songs that we will be singing at a Shabbat Service somewhere.

What has been the best or most meaningful part of this elective? Probably the most meaningful part would be that the songs that we are doing are so pretty and they just make you think a lot and wonder a lot about so many different things.

What is one thing you have learned in your Teffillah elective? I have learned a lot of new songs for Shabbat but not only have I learned the songs,I have also learned the meanings to the songs and also songs songs that I have known from before I have learned the meanings to!

What is one thing you would change or improve about your elective? If I were the teacher I would have maybe not let some people still be in glee who don’t want to sing or are not participating in glee club or who are talking and not being respectful.

What (related to your teffillah elective) do you still wonder about? I still wonder why and who came up with all these songs for Shabbat and also who came up will all the prayers and when did they and how did they. I think my teacher in my group already went over who wrote the song and maybe why but I forgot and maybe she could go over it again?!
