It is Jewish homeschool blog carnival time again!

image

Have you visited the first Jewish homeschooling blog carnival yet?

I started this hoping to learn about other great homeschool bloggers who happen to be Jewish, or great Jewish bloggers who happen to be homeschoolers.

It seems there aren’t many of us out here.  I’m surprised, because tribe-finding is what cyberspace is all about.  (does anybody still use the word cyberspace?)

But I’m still hopeful that at least a few will come out of the woodwork.  Maybe some who aren’t blogging yet will start so others can read along with their journey.  And maybe some great homeschool bloggers will turn out to be Jewish!

If you are either of the above, or you learn with your kid(s) at home in any way (even if they’re in school some of the time), it counts as homeschooling.  And if you’re Jewish – even if you don’t belong to a synagogue, JCC or other formal organization – you’re welcome to join us.

Submit your best posts here to be included in the Rosh Chodesh Kislev edition, coming up in a couple of weeks.  Or link to your blog in the comments section below.

    I'm planning to to Jewish supplementary education at home with my kids. My oldest is just 3, so I'm starting to pick up some techniques I'd like to employ. I just did a post in what I hope will be a series on my blog.

    Thanks for doing this! I have already used some of the resources fromt he last carnival. It helps to know I'm not the only one working on doing this.

    Hi! I'm really enjoying reading your blog and I think we have a lot in common. :) I have a blog at Room613.net, and a few other Jewish homeschoolers do, too. Gotta nudge them to post more, though! Be in touch sometime. - Yael

What do we tell our kids about Chabad and “Yechi”?

If I start by saying I really like Chabad, and adore the late Lubavitcher Rebbe, z"l, well... maybe you already know where I'm headed. Naomi Rivka has been asking lately what I think about Chabad.  She asks, in part, because she already knows how I feel.  She already knows I’m bothered, though to her, it’s mostly about “liking” and “not liking.”  I wish things were that simple. Our little neighbourhood in Israel has a significant Chabad presence, and Chabad conducts fairly significant outreach within the community.  Which sounds nice until you realize that this is a religious neighbourhood, closed on Shabbos, where some huge percentage of people are shomer mitzvos.  Sure, it’s mostly religious Zionist, and there are a range of observances, for sure, but we’re pretty much all religious here in some way or another. So at that point, this isn’t outreach but inreach .  Convincing people who are religious to be… what? A lot of Chabad’s efforts here are focused on kids, including a
