Giant Relief Map of Israel in days of Joshua

Shlomo Morrison (on left) points to the legend explaining the different colors on the map. Miriam Kudan and Nechama O'Brien point to the name of the Map "The Land of Israel as promised to Yehoshua".

Shown above are the makers of the Giant Relief Map, together with their hard work. It is amazing! It hangs in the hallway, just above the stairs.
From Left: Miriam Kudan, Nechama O'Brien, Elimelech Backman, and Shlomo Morrison. Of course, thanks to their Navi teacher, Morah Clara Simon.

It is made of clay, cardboard and sand. We first studied about it in the Navi which describes the borders and the land, and the different types of land. It was fun to create something based on what we learned.
