they very often ask the questions that are on everybody’s mind but nobody
dares ask. So I guess you might miss that. Could be a real show stopper –
or just take the whole affair to new and different levels. One thing I would be
pretty sure of is that there would be few issues of significance that all the
kids don’t already know about. They may have things a little confused and
a little transparent discussion could clear away some of the shadows.</span></font></p>

your response. I am presenting the idea to the central parents’ committee
tonite. I’ve heard some concern about some of the “heavier”
issues being discussed with younger children involved. I’m not sure what
I think about that. As a Jewish – Arab school with some fairly loaded
issues, it more or less requires an essential shift in the way people see
things to have a truly open space with first graders and political heavies in
the same event. </span></font></p>

style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:red'>Yoav – Sounds like a
lot of fun, and there is indeed some experience in the area. Some time ago in
Seattle (USA) one school began each year with an Open Space for everybody. All
the folks that you are talking about – and it turned out to be quite a
bunch, something like the 400 you are talking about. But everything seemed to
work just like usual. In fact it worked much better than things usually worked
at school. For one thing teachers actually talked to students and the students
reciprocated. Parents were involved, really involved. Not to mention the cooks,
custodians, security and administration. You should have a grand time and we
look forward to hearing the results. Only suggestion I have is to make sure you
have plenty of space. That many people, particularly active, vocal, young
people need a lot of space. And if the younger grades are involved (they should
be) you might think about having ½ hour to 45 min sessions. Attention spans are
on the short side, but the Law of Two Feet usually takes care of any problems.</span></font></p>

the holiness of silence, believe it or not, <i><span style='font-style:italic'>my</span></i>
cellphone rang. Understand, I run programs on human dignity and cellphone abuse
is one of the examples that come up as people explore the ways in which they
abuse each other’s space, and here I was, Dr. Dignity, forgetting to turn
off before entering the synagogue. If people had not been in a Yom Kippur-ish
