Rabbis Message Let All Who are Hungry Come and Eat! The Catskills comedian Freddie Roman observed: "Did you ever notice that the Holidays are either early or late? JEWS ARE NEVER ON TIME!" True enough, I guess. This year Passover is particularly early, as things go, with the first Seder night on Monday, March 25th. Also this year, on Tuesday, March 26th, we at Union Temple will gather for the first time for a Second Night Seder, for us, our families and friends, and those in the community who wish to join us. It should be a wonder- ful gathering. You will be hearing more about it from the conveners. Early or late, the essence of Passover remains the same: to remind us of where we came from, and of our responsibilities as Jews in the world. Out of the bitterness of slavery, and our experience of oppression and degradation, we learn to promote the values of freedom and respect for human dignity, and to help those who are bowed down; to unlock the chains of poverty, and to cast a light into the darkness of ignorance and hatred. We learn to help those who are in need. In this spirit, I appeal to you now as I do each year, on behalf of my colleagues at the New York Board of Rab- bis. Each year the NYBR conducts a Passover Appeal, in concert with the Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty, in order to buy Passover food and supplies for thousands of our Jewish sisters and brothers in the New York Metropolitan area who are alone or institutionalized, in want, and in need. This year, in the ongoing aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, the need is even greater. This appeal is based on the long-standing tradition of maot chittin. Historically, the elders of the community would go around collecting for a fund to buy wheat to bake matzah. The rules of the fund were simple: those who needed it took from it; those who did not need it, gave to it. Each year as a congregation, along with our sister congregations all over New York, we at Union Temple have continued this tradition of maot chittin by responding to this appeal with overwhelming kind- ness and generosity. I hope that this year will be no exception. As we have done each year, we ask you to make out a check, for whatever amount you are comfortable with, to Union Temple, and earmark it Passover Appeal. Send it to the Union Temple Office at 17 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11238. You may also contribute online at http://www.nycharities.org/donate/ c_donate.asp?CharityCode=3473 , and scroll to Passover Appeal. We then will send a collective check to the NYBR from our congregation. I am proud to be associated with the NYBR, particularly because of the chesed - compassion - embodied by this annual appeal, and carried out by the chaplains of the NYBR all year round. All of us offer our profound thanks for your kind participation in this appeal, and thus the fulfillment of the mitzvot of tzedakah - and gemilut chasadim - charity and acts of loving kindness - so integral a part of our Passover celebration. From Stephen, Philip and myself, and of course from our entire congregational family, a Ziessen Pesach to all! -Rabbi Linda Henry Goodman 3
Officers Column We Just Have to Ask Just ask? New Yorkers Brooklynites especially are not known for their shyness. We don't hesitate to ask, often de- mand, what we want. Members of the Union Temple community are no exception. Except when it comes to money. Happily, we run many programs now. Films ... Friday and Saturday Shabbats for the toddler community ... au- thor presentations ... guest lectures ... the list goes on. Most often, these events are free. They're not limited to members. We don't at all hesitate to welcome everyone. I'm sure you would say, as I do, that's the way it should be. But we hesitate to ask for the money it costs to bring each of these fabulous events to life. We generally underestimate the generosity of people like you and me, don't you think? We forget that it actually makes you feel good to know you've helped. If we just reminded everyone members, their friends, guests who stop by because they've seen an ad or flyer that we would be truly thankful for a donation, wouldn't you agree that all of you would gladly give? So take this as your first re- minder, please. Rabbi would be extremely grateful for your sup- port of the Passover Appeal this month. Jews less fortunate than you and me are relying on us. As for next month and the months after, who knows what other good deeds your philanthropic side will lead you to? Thank you so much. Truly. -Ellen D. Kolikoff, Vice President Comments to: ellen@csnyllc.com

Thinking Out of the Shabbox After months of preparation, on February 2 nd , we launched our newest family program, Out of the Shab- box. Out of the Shabbox draws on the innovative and energetic talents of three Jewish artists and educators, Shawn Shafner (storytelling), Julie Gayer Kris (movement) and Jay Rapoport (music) to explore a variety of themes and values with young children through biblical and other stories, song, and text based move- ment. Three Saturdays a month from February through June, children up to six years old will gather with their parents in the Preschool big room to dance, sing, and tell stories based on a carefully selected monthly theme. In February we explored peace; and next month, we will explore charity and acts of loving kind- ness. We will conclude in June with the fundamental tenet of Jewish life, Tikkun Olam, repairing the world. Particularly given recent events, each of the monthly themes is relevant and timely. The program con- tent is designed to encourage the children to actively participate so that they can fully explore these important values while still having fun. At our launch, children danced and gathered with our performers to act out the well known story It could have been worse. The story is about a family who lives in a small apartment and go to their Rabbi for help. The Rabbi says invite your ex- tended family to stay with them in the apartment. Confused, the family fol- lows the Rabbis advice but is even more unhappy. When they return to the Rabbi, complaining even more about how small the apartment is, the Rabbi sends them to invite animals to stay with them. Naturally, they again follow the Rabbis advice, but are back at her doorstep still complaining. Finally, after a lengthy stay, the Rabbi finally tells the family to send everyone home, at which point they realize how spacious their apartment is, and how it could have been worse. The children acted out the story with the Shawn, Jay and Julie, all playing different characters; some were the family, others were members of the extended family, and some were the cats and dogs and other animals who had temporarily moved in. It was clear from watching the kids that they were having a great time, and were fully en- gaged in the story. Future programs will generally have two artists, who will continue to interweave storytelling with dance and movement to create a dynamic and vibrant morning program for young Brooklyn fami- lies. All in all, the February 2 nd launch was a great success, and families were thrilled with the program content. 6
Preschool Color them Happy with the Snow Our preschoolers are very excited about winter and snow. For many of them its the first time they have seen snow or been old enough to play in it. Classroom themes have ranged from winter and snow, to colors, letters, transportation and dinosaurs. In the Chickadees, Montana Vazquez-Grinnells twos class, the children continue to grow and flourish. Each day we are seeing them discover a little more about each other and themselves. The children have really started to in- teract, create games, and play together. A favored game during Big Room is setting up all the chairs to make a train, bus, or theater and quickly the whole class becomes involved! They have been talking a lot about winter and snow, as well as Dinosaurs which is something completely driven by the group's interest. The Robins class, Tomomi Iwamotos three class, is studying colors. They started with primary colors last week and are onto secondary colors. They have been playing a game where the children all have to search around the room to find one thing that is the color of the day and bring it to the rug. They then gather around the items and look at them and count them. After studying primary colors they moved on to secondary colors. The children did a special project where they dropped blue and yellow ice cubes in water to see what would happen. The Rob- ins were fascinated to see the colors mix gradually together. The Sparrows, Natalie Roths threes class, are working hard on their letters and are spontaneously adding letters to their art work. They continue to read different versions of Chicka Chicka Boom Boom (both the letter and number versions) and to discuss how each is different. They will be starting a new unit all about me". The kids are growing and developing a greater sense of self-awareness. They have been saying their full names at morn- ing meeting and talking a lot about birthdays. In the coming weeks they will be creating "all about me" books which will help the children to think about who they are in their family and what their interests are. The Puffins, Catie Blake Vignonas fours class, has been busy learning about dinosaurs and of course making lots of fun dinosaur art. They have been singing "Oh where oh where have the dinosaurs gone..." This is a unit that resonates with all of children. It has also given them an opportunity to explore a variety of art materials. They made "fossils" with shells and little dinosaurs that they pressed into model magic, dinosaur skeletons using pasta as the bones and sand as dirt, a big dinosaur collage as a class, and compared their footprints to one the size of a dinosaur's. The Puffins also worked together to make a huge dinosaur mural using oil pastels and different textured paper. The Hummingbirds, Pam Apples fours class, has been working on a transportation unit. They have painted with car wheels using foam paint and regular paint, and they have made their own driver's licenses. They are currently working on creating their own original vehicle from cardboard boxes. Each child is making a different vehicle. Among the vehicles the Hummingbirds have thus far created are a police car, fire truck, ambulance, airplane, car and train. This is a very time consuming project. All of the children are trying to include lots of details on their vehicles. Please contact us if you are interested in applying to our summer program which runs June 17th through August 2nd. -Susan Sporer, Preschool Director LUNCH AND LEARN: COOKING AROUND THE WORLD Join professional chef Amanda Melpolder from Shir HaMaalot, the independent minyan worshipping in our building every month for a tasty tour of Jewish cooking around the globe.

Brotherhood March in with a Good Book What better way to warm up during these cold winter months than with a good book, good friends and good food? Well on Sunday, March 3rd at 10 AM youre going to have the chance when Brotherhood President Steven Segall leads a book discussion on The Ornament of the World, a book about medieval Spain and a time when Jews, Christians and Moslems lived together. The book covers about seven and a half centuries, from the beginnings of the Cordoba caliphate to the fall of Granada, last of the Moslem city-states, and the expulsion in 1492. Along the way, we meet many leading Jewish figures, and discover Jewish military generals and poets reviving the Hebrew language for Want to make a donation to Union Temple? Its easier than ever.

Religious School
Explorations What a year we continue to be having in Religious School! Since our last update, we learned about Tu Bishevat, philanthropy and bullying
January 27th - On the day of our Tu BiShevat seder we took a close look at environmental concerns, both lo- cal and global, and considered not only what our Jewish texts teach us but also how some Jewish communities incorporate these concerns into their everyday living. This culminated in a fabulous Tu BShevat seder.
February 3rd - Two thirds through our year-long effort to collect tzedaka, we began considering the subject of philanthropy itself. After discussing what it is, why it is important and what it can accomplish, we initiated the process of trying to figure out what is most important to the students of the Union Temple Religious School. We have not yet determined where they will choose to donate, but we have begun the educational process of how to figure it out.. Of course, after initiating the discussion, we made sure to ground the conversation in Jewish text and tradition. I look forward to the next stage of the process, when hard decisions begin to get made on where the money will go.
February 10 - During our final session before Presidents Week, we honored the birthday of Judy Blume by celebrating her career and paying close attention to the topic of bullying, about which she wrote so movingly in her novel, Blubber. As is our custom, after raising the issue as an full school community, we broke into class sections and conducted age-appropriate lessons that placed the issue firmly within a Jewish context.
We look forward to celebrating Purim with the Carnival followed by the congregational pot-luck dinner, Rabbi Goodmans telling of the Purim story and, of course, the Parade of Costumes! Sunday School will resume on March 3 rd .
I typically write about Union Temple children, but Id like to call at- tention to the wonderful learning taking place on Wednesday nights, too. A core of dedicated adult learners have been gathering together each week to learn Hebrew -- not only how to decode it, but actually to understand and speak it, too. As if that werent enough, after studying the language together these past few months, our class came to the consensus that they wanted more. The Hebrew is great but they also wanted the opportunity for Jewish studies beyond Hebrew. While the Anshei Mitzvah Class continues Hebrew every Wednesday night from 8-9:15 PM, we have instituted a second class from 7-7:50 PM focusing on great books and ideas of Judaism. Previous partici- pation in the Hebrew portion of our Anshei Mitzvah class is not nec- essary to join in the new class. If you are interested in joining us, please contact the office. The more the merrier!
