#2 Heroes of Israel
Your job is to find out about one of the heroes of Israel below. You will teach your class for two minutes about the hero (This could be with a speech, doing a short play or singing a song.). You will also give your teacher a written report, poem or a poster about this hero.
In addition to the chapters in this Web-Book, you can find more information on the hero you select by clicking on their picture or name.

#3 It's About Time!
If you have finished this Web Book, you know that you have learned about a lot of important people and about a lot of important things that happened. For this project, make a time line that next year's class could use of the important dates in the history of Israel and Zionism.
You only need
to include things that are in this Web Book (but
you can add if you would like). Be sure to add pictures to help next
year's class understand what is in the time line. Use the table
of contents to help you remember what you learned.
