I discovered that Chabad has opened a site in which people are called upon
to honor the memory of the Holtzbergs and the other victims of the Mumbai
attack by "pledging a mitzvah". The site is in English, so this is a chance
for your students to practice English by posting their "pledge". Students do
not have to choose one of the mitzvahs from the drop down list. they can
choose "other" and then specify any other mitzvah. Remember that mitzvahs
include a whole host of topics pertaining to the way we behave - not to
gossiping, not insulting others, not wasting materials in our world,
returning lost objects, visiting the sick, etc. etc. Students can choose
whether or not they want their pledge to be published.
Please note that students are asked to submit an e-mail address and there is
a box they have to UNCHECK if they don't want to start getting materials
from Chabad. I think it's important to tell that clearly to your students -
