field-name-field-activity-explanation field-type-text-long field-label-above view-mode-rss"><h2 class="field-label">Explanation:&nbsp;</h2><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>At the beginning of the summer, choose a plot of land to place your garden. The land should have direct sunlight for at least 6 hours each day, and it should be near a water source.</p> <p>Once you've selected the land, campers can help create the garden. They will need to hoe the dirt, plant guard rails of wood around the garden (laying them down in troughs dug in the ground is an easy way to do this). The point of planting guard rails is to keep the garden dirt firm and in the garden, allowing the garden to be 'boxed in'.</p> <p>You then need to dig troughs as lines for planting seeds. Determine which items will need to grow where, and how many seeds you want for each item you're planting.</p> <p>Once planted and watered, there are many interesting ways to integrate Israel into the experience: </p> <ul><li>Learning about Israeli innovation. <ul><li>Start with drip irrigation, one of Israel's claims to fame. You can set up your own drip irrigation system (a long hose with holes in it) or have your campers brainstorm the problem that led to its creation.</li> <li>Once you're on the topic of Israeli innovation, learn more about creations that Israel is (and isn't) well known for. Like the cherry tomato strain Israel invented that ripens slowly and stays on the vine, allowing for it to be sold on cluster like grapes, and making shipping easier. (Other examples can be found here: <a href="http://www.israel21c.org/technology/israels-top-45-greatest-inventions-of-all-time-2/">http://www.israel21c.org/technology/israels-top-45-greatest-inventions-o...</a>).</li> <li>Have campers look at areas that need innovation in their garden or around camp. How can they use the examples of Israeli innovation to fix their problems? For instance, if the garden is too small for many people to work in it at once, what could they do to maximize the efforts of the whole group? Or if the garden isn't ready to be tended and a group is coming, what could they do with the other campers to help them feel connected to the Israeli garden?</li> </ul></li> <li>The garden is a great opportunity for campers to learn Hebrew vocabulary. Create Hebrew and English (and transliterated) signage for every kind of plant in the garden. You can even create a poster for a wall near the garden letting everyone see a 'map' of the garden and what is growing where (in Hebrew and English). Also, you can post an enlarged version of the Resource Cards related to Israeli agriculture (Kibbutz, Drip Irrigation) and while you're planting the garden, you can orient the campers to the important role of agriculture in Israel's history.</li> <li>Talk about argiculture and the landscape of Israel. Part of Ben Gurion's dream was to see the desert bloom. Why did he care about using the desert? Why did Israel spend so much effort in making agriculture work even in the desert? (Hint: The Negev Desert is 60% of the land in Israel).</li> <li>You can also bring in a lesson about the kibbutz here, discussing with campers the history of the kibbutz movements and its role in agriculture.</li> <li>You can also learn about the remarkable work of desalination in Israel. Given that much of the water around the desert has high saline content (the Mediterranean Sea), Israel found ways to use the salted water for irrigation of certain crops.</li> </ul><p>The garden can become the foundation for a wide array of programming (some examples below):</p> <ul><li>a cabin activity to prune/plant/harvest</li> <li>a full age group activity to create the garden</li> <li>an activity to create signage</li> <li>a cooking class using the harvested foods/herbs</li> <li>an Israeli meal where campers describe each item using the Hebrew name</li> </ul></div></div></section><section class="field field-name-field-background-card-files field-type-image field-label-above view-mode-rss"><h2 class="field-label">Background Cards:&nbsp;</h2><div class="field-items"><figure class="clearfix field-item even"><a href="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/4-symbol-KIBBUTZ-content%20cards.jpg" title="" class="colorbox" rel="gallery-node-109-4OvRnLAY-hI"><img typeof="foaf:Image" class="image-style-thumbnail" src="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/4-symbol-KIBBUTZ-content%20cards.jpg?itok=diJOakPp" width="67" height="100" alt="" title="" /></a></figure><figure class="clearfix field-item odd"><a href="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/1-people-BEN%20GURION-content%20cards.jpg" title="" class="colorbox" rel="gallery-node-109-4OvRnLAY-hI"><img typeof="foaf:Image" class="image-style-thumbnail" src="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/1-people-BEN%20GURION-content%20cards.jpg?itok=b3kfL-VA" width="67" height="100" alt="" title="" /></a></figure><figure class="clearfix field-item even"><a href="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/42-place-NEGEV-content%20cards.jpg" title="" class="colorbox" rel="gallery-node-109-4OvRnLAY-hI"><img typeof="foaf:Image" class="image-style-thumbnail" src="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/42-place-NEGEV-content%20cards.jpg?itok=EaNboTit" width="67" height="100" alt="" title="" /></a></figure><figure class="clearfix field-item odd"><a href="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/sites/default/files/background/society-16-DRIP%20IRRIGATION.jpg" title="" class="colorbox" rel="gallery-node-109-4OvRnLAY-hI"><img typeof="foaf:Image" class="image-style-thumbnail" src="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/sites/default/files/background/society-16-DRIP%20IRRIGATION.jpg?itok=nR2XUrjn" width="67" height="100" alt="" title="" /></a></figure></div></section><section class="field field-name-field-image field-type-image field-label-above view-mode-rss"><h2 class="field-label">Supporting Images:&nbsp;</h2><div class="field-items"><figure class="clearfix field-item even"><a href="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/avoda%20garden%201.jpg" title="Our Camp&#039;s Israel Garden: A Guide to Creating and Programming" class="colorbox" rel="gallery-node-109-4OvRnLAY-hI"><img typeof="foaf:Image" class="image-style-thumbnail" src="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/avoda%20garden%201.jpg?itok=dmXZvkbO" width="100" height="56" alt="" title="" /></a></figure><figure class="clearfix field-item odd"><a href="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/avoda%20garden%202.jpg" title="Our Camp&#039;s Israel Garden: A Guide to Creating and Programming" class="colorbox" rel="gallery-node-109-4OvRnLAY-hI"><img typeof="foaf:Image" class="image-style-thumbnail" src="https://goodman.theicenter.org/sites/default/files/styles/thumbnail/public/avoda%20garden%202.jpg?itok=1LYDltyf" width="100" height="56" alt="" title="" /></a></figure></div></section><section class="field field-name-field-attribution field-type-text field-label-above view-mode-rss"><h2 class="field-label">Attribution:&nbsp;</h2><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even">Camp Avoda</div></div></section> Mon, 10 Nov 2014 18:52:20 +0000 JAR 109 at https://goodman.theicenter.org My Facebook Kotel https://goodman.theicenter.org/activities/my-facebook-kotel <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden view-mode-rss"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded">Social Media provides a platform for personal expression and building community, and Israel can be a key component in both of these endeavors.

Israel, on the other hand, may seem foreign to them -- certainly as a content piece related to social media. This program aims to bridge that gap and help campers understand the power of social media in helping them keep informed, share their views, and engage in lively respectful discussion about difficult topics. </p> <p>Opening Game: give each camper a piece of paper and ask them to write a list of words that describe what other people think of them when looking at their Facebook walls. Next, ask them to pick the one word from the list that makes them most uncomfortable, and write it on a label/sticker/nametag that they will affix to their forehead. Now, use a "cocktail party"-style activity in which the group must circulate and interact. Instruct campers to walk the way the word on their label would walk and interact based on the way the word on their label dictates. In essence, campers are asked to become their label for the duration of the exercise. </p> <p>Debrief: Facilitate a conversation about this opening exercise seeking to encourage campers to begin to think about how their Facbook wall -- much like the labels they were wearing at the cocktail party -- define them and shape how people interact with them. Ask questions such as:</p> <ul><li>What was your experience?</li> <li>In what ways does your Facebook wall define you?</li> </ul><p>After campers have reflected on the experience they just completed, introduce Israel into the conversation: tell the group that they are gong to create a Facebook wall for Israel. Unlike the notes they may have placed in the Western Wall, if they have visited Israel, the messages on this wall are going to be public, just like so many social media posts. </p> <p>Formulate a list with the group: what are situations that might prompt you to post about Israel? Possible aswers might include:</p> <ul><li>I saw an Israeli movie</li> <li>I visited Israel, or want to visit Israel</li> <li>I heard about an Israeli invention</li> <li>Something about Israel was on the news</li> <li>It's an Israeli holiday, or the anniversary of something important in Israeli history</li> </ul><p>Create an actual Facebook wall for Israel using markers and butcher paper.</p> <p>Give everyone a chance to think about their own relatinoship to Israel. Encourage them to come up with five ideas of things they might post -- and then to pursue the idea they think is least likely to be repeated by others. Campers can write their posts directly on the Facebook wall, or they can write on slips of paper and then tape them to the wall. As people post their own contributions to the wall, they should be encouraged to comment on other people's messages.

You should all be standing in pairs, holding hands. (If you are shomer n’giah, you may find an alternative to holding hands, of course.)</p> <p> Next, please discuss and add up among the two of you how many years you have been at your camp. Now, find another pair that matches (or comes close to) your number. Great! You should now be standing in groups of four.</p> <p> Next task is to talk amongst yourselves and determine how many times the members in your quartet have visited Israel combined. If you are playing this game with staff and have a shaliach in your foursome, consider yourselves lucky! You have a lifer! And add the number of the non-shlichim in your group and then add 10 to your number. Now find another quartet that matches (or comes close to) your number. Great! You should now be in standing in groups of eight.</p> <p> Now this gets fun! Please now circle up, huddle, and go over who everyone is in your group and what they love most about Israel (even if they haven't been).</p> <p>Your next task now is to find another group of eight that has at least one person in that group who has been to Israel! Great! You should now be standing in groups of sixteen.</p> <p>Our next to last task is to get into 3 groups of 32. In order to do that, please circle up and huddle with your group of 16. A staff member will now bring to your group a slip of paper. Please read the slip of paper and accomplish your task!</p> <p>SLIPS OF PAPER</p> <p>(4 groups get this slip) Your task is to stand in a line, shoulder to shoulder with your backs right up against the long end of the open space, facing the space. There will be another group with this same assignment. Please include them in your line. There are three other groups getting this slip of paper. You can only partner with one other group and your two groups must be standing opposite and facing the other two groups.</p> <p> (2 groups get this slip) Your task is to create a standing equilateral triangle in the very center of the field using all 16 people in your group. There will be another group with this same assignment. Please ensure that their triangle and your triangle overlap to make a Magen David.</p> <p> </p> <p>The faciliator should be in a place where a picture from above can be taken and the ideal way to end this program is to play Hatikvah on a loud speaker and get everyone to sing along while showing them an Israeli flag so they recognize the shape they're standing in.</p> </div></div></section><section class="field field-name-field-activity-variations field-type-text-long field-label-above view-mode-rss"><h2 class="field-label">Variations:&nbsp;</h2><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>You can always do this with smaller/less groups.</p> </div></div></section><section class="field field-name-field-subjects field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above view-mode-rss"><h2 class="field-label">Curricular Subjects:&nbsp;</h2><ul class="field-items"><li class="field-item even"><a href="/subjects/current-events" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Current Events</a></li></ul></section> Tue, 03 Dec 2013 15:35:54 +0000 JAR 99 at https://goodman.theicenter.org If Today Is Monday, We Must Be In... https://goodman.theicenter.org/activities/if-today-monday-we-must-be <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden view-mode-rss"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded">&quot;If Today is Monday, We Must Be in...&quot;
