Nava Rosenblatt is from Highland Park, New Jersey. She attended Ma’ayanot Yeshiva High School, followed by Sha’alvim for Women. She is currently in Stern, studying math and computer science.
Nava’s chaburah is titled “Middot from Characters in Tanach.” Each chaburah focuses on a different character in Tanach and a middah that they embody. We examine how they exhibit the middah, and then learn about the middah in general and how we can apply it to our lives. For example, we learned about Daniel in the lion’s den and saw the tremendous bitachon that he placed in Hashem, and we then learned different sources and perspectives on bitachon and hishtadlut, and discussed how to make it relevant to our own lives. In another chaburah, we learned about Yaakov and his middah of emet, and delved into sources to understand how Yaakov embodies this middah, and then talked about the value of emet while recognizing situations in which telling the truth might not be as black and white.
Nava’s awesome homeroom girls are Meira, Breindy, Tiferet, and Shira
What’s your favorite Israeli snack?
Meira: My favorite Israeli snack is Kinder hippos. I love the creamy chocolate along with the fact that they’re hippos
Breindy: Not really a snack but the yogurt and pudding here is really good (yogurt with strawberries and all pudding)
Tiferet: My favorite Israeli snack is the ice cream cones with the chocolate at the bottom
Shira: My favorite Israeli snack is the black Doritos because they’re really spicy
