An Israel-Focused High Holiday Lesson Plan

An Israel-Focused High Holiday Lesson Plan

This thorough lesson plan aims to help students “taste” the ethnic diversity of the Jewish communities in Israel, experience the immense weight and meaning of the Yom Kippur War in Israeli society, and gain insight into the complex attitudes of secular Israelis towards Jewish tradition. This resource was created by the educational wing of the Jewish Agency, Makom, an organization that empowers community leaders to ask tough questions and articulate compelling visions, and provides the content and tools to craft honest programming that embraces the vibrant complexity of Israel.
