On this posters we have put several symbols: the Israel's National flower "calanit metzuya"; National bird "hoopoe" and some well-known symbol for tourist as "hamsa". They all pictured twice as a two-line connection of the pair "Israel and Jewish Nation", as two "Luchot Habrit", as "symmetry and uniqueness" which goes together in nature and around. How does Israel shape my Jewish story? Even during the art lessons we are learning more about Israel the Jewish traditions and values. The work on this posters helped us to learn some National Israel symbols and through this task we have learnt about specialty of the hoopoe bird and of the anemone flower. So we feel connection to Israel through this poster and we feel as good pupils learning more and more, as long as studying is our National main symbol!))) Every day we can learn something new and more about Israel. On art, sport or Jewish tradition lesson - thanks to our teachers during each lesson we feels connecting to our Homeland. Thank you for this competition which really inspires both teachers and students to learn more about Israel and to find more Israel inside us.
