A week and a half ago, the moment schools announced their closing, dedicated teachers immediately began planning how to adapt to this new reality of online teaching.
Mivtzah Shevach Hamoadim a competition on the study of hilchos Pesach from the Sefer Shevach Hamoadim was therefore launched to give boys and girls the opportunity to learn the Halachos of Pesach from the Sefer completely on their own.
With the help of the English Shevach Hamoadim (with permission from the author) and daily Kahoot! quizzes, over 100 boys and girls took the first test this past Friday.
The first winner, Moishe Goldshmid from 8th grade Oholei Torah won a mountain speed bike.
“I’m amazed to see how many boys and girls are participating in this Mivtzah, learning the Halachos of Pesach even without the usual school structure,” says Rabbi Yoel Vogel, founder of the Mivtzah.
The Mivtzah is now dedicated in honor of the author of Shevach Hamoadim, Rabbi Shmuel Hurwitz, who is in need of our tefillos.
Please continue to say Tehillim for R’ Shmuel Halevi ben Chava.

My children have been very religiously learning the Shevach Hamoadim and taking the tests and it makes them feel so good. Thank you for all of your hard work and effort into making this a clear and fun way to learn for the kids.
An amazing teacher for all
