ISRAEL CHALLENGE

Win Starbucks $$ and learn some facts about Israel!

I LOVE teaching about Israel, so I decided to create The Israel Challenge. Every month I will post 3-5 questions about Israel. Any one of our registered students (or their parents) can participate for a chance to win a $20 Starbucks gift card and your picture in the Bulletin and on the school's billboard. This challenge will last until the end of the year. You must answer correctly at least 20 questions. So do your research and send your answers by mail or deliver them to my office on Sundays; the more you answer, the better your chances of winning. Here is the first set of questions:

  1. In what year Israel had declared its independence?
  2. Who was the first prime minister of Israel?
  3. Who was the first president of Israel?
  4. What is the name of the eternal capital of Israel?
  5. What city in Israel is called Em HaMoshavot, "the mother of all cities"?

B'Hatzlacha! Good Luck!
