IsraelExperts’ tools & resourcesAs an educator, whether you are planning your next trip to Israel, or looking for new activities, we want to provide you with Israel education tools to assist you with your pre-program and post-program activities. Please write and tell us about your experiences with the map and other resources. Have you tried some of the 60 activities for teaching Israel? Perhaps you want to share your experiences with other educators. In addition, we would like to receive your suggestions: what would help you “teach Israel” in the classroom or assembly? Our team of informal educators is always thinking of new ways to make the lessons of Israel and Jewish Peoplehood more accessible and relevant to all. |
