Korach . Middah/ Jewish Value Activity Early Years & Foundation Stage 0 - 5 Korach was jealous of Moshe. When we are jealous it makes us do and say things that we should not - Being satisfied with what we have and not being jealous Print the story on Resource Page 1. The two children were beginning to be jealous of their baby brother and had forgotten to appreciate all they had. Key Stage 1 5 - 8 In the parashah, Korach as well as others try and start rebellions.With each of these groups Moshe tries to make peace by speaking to them in turn to try and settle the quarrels - Avoiding quarrels and making peace Play this game called 'What would you do?' Print Resource Page 2, and cut into four cards, each describing a different scenario. Make a few similar cards with additional scenarios if you want to spend more time on this activity. Give a card to a child and ask them to read it out. Then ask them 'What would you do?' The discussion may broaden out to ask other children if they would do the same or not. To help the leader, on Resource Page 3 is a list of possible ways of resolving conflicts. Some are good ways and some are not. The leader may want to print this out to use as suggestions to the children. Key Stage 2 8 - 11 After Korach and Bnei Yisrael rebelled, Hashem proves to them, as before, that Moshe and Aharon have been appointed by Him, by making Aharon's stick blossom - Trusting in your leaders Play this game to show a 'leader' and 'follower' trusting in each other. Set up a simple 'obstacle' course in the room, using chairs etc. One child is chosen to be the 'leader' or instruction giver. Another is chosen to be the 'follower'. The follower puts on a light blindfold (could be an airline blackout mask). The game proceeds as follows. Apart from the 'leader' and 'follower', all the other children sit well away from the obstacle course in complete silence (unless they are part of it!) From the starting place the leader must give verbal instructions to the follower, such as 'walk two small steps forward', 'make one high step to cover a length 40cm' - this might be to step over something. The 'leader' must ensure that they are giving accurate and appropriate instructions, so that the follower does not hurt themselves or trip up. The 'follower' must trust the 'leader' to complete the task. If both are successful they receive a small reward - biscuit, sweet etc.
