Dena Lichtman, from Hillside, NJ, is thrilled to be back on Michlelet as a madricha after spending an exciting summer here as a camper!
The NCSYers in Dena’s chabura are: Sara Axel (New York, NY), Tehila Finkelstein (Teaneck, NJ), Nechama Deena Korenblit (Passaic, NJ), and Temima Kermaier (Baltimore, MD).
In Dena’s chabura, we learn the psychology behind different colors and find places in Tanach where those colors are mentioned. Then we learn about a middah connected to that color. It gives a totally new perspective on things we’ve been learning since kindergarten. We look back at the basics and with our new understanding of colors we see that it’s not so simple after all.
Sara: “I love learning things in my classes and chaburas that I’ve been taught in school but now have a totally different spin. I never looked at things in that way! It’s an awesome balance between crazy tiyulim and meaningful speeches! I love Michlelet!
Temima: “The accepting atmosphere in Michlelet is amazing. In Michlelet it doesn’t matter where you live or what you look like. Everybody is respected as a person who can be learned from.”
Nechama Deena: “I love the well balanced atmosphere of Michlelet.”
Tehila: “I love the balance on Michlelet of the learning, tiyulim, activities, and just having fun. The people really make the program great. The madrichot and staff are amazing and all the girls are so friendly and accepting. I love Michlelet!”
