Mrs. Sinensky's Reading, Movie, Game & Activity List

  • The Matrix (movie)
  • Redemption, Prayer, Torah Study in Tradition 17:2, R' Soloveitchik (my favorite Rav Solovetchik article)
  • Wit, Margaret Edson (play that's fun to analyze)
  • Halachos of Brachos, R' Forst (super-practical, well organized, clear, comprehensive book about Brachot. Great to learn with a friend!)
  • Set (the game-great for sharpening your Gemara skills. Someone once told me that it should be renamed the "tzad hashaveh" game!)
  • Watch your favorite T.V. show and write down all the "hidden" messages that you can pick up on
  • Abraham's Journey, R' Soloveitchik (Essays about the life and character of Avraham Avinue. I read it on Pesach and couldn't put it down!)
  • The Sabbath, Heschel (A book that will change your perspective on and appreciation of Shabbat and Chagim)
