New Music by Shira Students

Throughout the year our Shira students learn a lot of new Jewish music.  Some of the music is actually new (i.e. written recently), and some of it is simply new to our students and/or our community.  This year, the Shira students were asked to re-write lyrics to melodies of songs they have learned so far this year.  They wrote lyrics about Thanksgiving or their experiences in Shira... they had free reign to be as creative as they wanted to be!  For more information about what Shira has been up to, please feel free to visit Elaya's Shira blog.  In the meantime, check out the following four videos of their 'performances' for one another in class, right before the Thanksgiving break:
