Chaburah Spotlight – Avigayil Adouth

michlelet July 31, 2017

Avigayil Adouth is from Miami, FL, went to Hebrew Academy for high school before spending an amazing year at Shaalvim for women. Avigayil is currently a student at Stern College for Women.

Avigayil’s chaburah is called “Tales as old as time truer now than ever” The chaburah explores stories from tanach and some of their more more practical applications and uses them to delve into conversations about more general Jewish Values.

Some examples are the story of Yehuda and Tamar, the concept of Yibum and the idea of Jewish continuity, or the Sin of Adam, the concept of Tzniut, and the trait of humility. Avigayil loves getting to learn with and from the girls in her chaburah, and hopes the lessons they learn together impact them and that she is able to impart of them a love for engaging with Torah!

Avigayil feels so privileged to have these amazing girls in her homeroom: Nava Israel (Silver Spring, MD) Zahava Davidowitz (Woodmere, NY) Elisheva Miller (Woodmere,NY) Devorah Weintraub (Philadelphia, PA)

What’s your favorite part of Shabbat on Michlelet?

Nava- My favorite part of shabbos on Michlelet is definitely the Friday night tisch. Right after dinner we all move our chairs away from the table and sit together in circles around a HUGE table of food! Right after we finish eating, there’s a ton more yummy food and delicious chulent!!!!

There’s beautiful singing, a hilarious skit run by some of our funniest advisors, while snacking on amazing candy and fruit!

The Friday Night Tisch on Mich is something that I’ve never ever experienced before, and it’s for sure the highlight of my shabbos here!

Zahava- Singing as we watch the sun set over the hills of Beit Shemesh

Elisheva – My favorite part is the tisch. I love the Rebbe and Rebbetzin and their humor and of course the food.

Devorah- playing games and talking with everyone after the seuda on Friday night
