The rHouse CurriculumrHouse is about making connections between our secular and Jewish lives. Everyday we live our routines; school, practice, rehearsal, studying, parents, and siblings, etc; often overlooking how our Judaism influences the decisions made every step along the way. At rHouse we strive to clarify these connections between our "everyday life" and our Judaism.

Sundays@rHouse - for grades 8-12Join us for Sundays@rHouse! rHouse meets once-a-month on Sundays. Over the course of the year, participants will rotate through each of our four rHouse experience tracks.
On Sundays@rHouse, we will begin our experiences at 11:30 AM, and Madrichim will be excused from the last half-hour of Religious School classes. |
The Experiences
rAdventure: Explore Jewish values and formulate connections between Judaism and the world around you while experiencing kayaking, hiking, and/or rock climbing adventures.
rCuisine: Learn culinary skills with some of Baltimore's local chefs and restaurant owners. Help to repair the world by donating the food we make to local soup kitchens and food pantries.
|
rCreativity: Meet local artists and explore how we can use a cariety of art forms to define and display our Jewish identities and Jewish values.
rMuseums: Take a day trip to one of Baltimore of D.C.'s inspiring museums. A Jewish museum educator will guide us in exploring what seemingly non-Jewish museums exhibits can teach us about Judaism and living Jewishly in today's world.
