Freedom School 4/27 Class Recaps
K-7 and Parents: This weekend, we continued our year-long work on Building our Spiritual Core by imersing ourselves in a core theme of Passover: “from slavery to freedom, from narrowness to expansion.” We explored this theme by unpacking two core texts of the Haggadah and our Saturday morning (shacharit) liturgy: Psalm 118 and Mi Chamocha prayer. We embodied the concept by moving our bodies in different contracted and expansive ways — and we also felt our ways through the meaning of the prayers by singing them with Hazzan Asher. Finally, we created art pieces using a process from the Jewish Studio Project to unpack our relationship to these concepts, and then co-created a seascape of us moving, together, from narrowness to expansiveness.
