Jewish and Me: Holidays

Early childhood teachers will find the core concepts, learning objectives, and teaching opportunities for each folder of Jewish and Me: Fall Holidays and Spring Holidays. Includes techniques to help young children discover the joys of our holiday traditions, for example, rolling like a round apple on Rosh Hashanah and making up new verses for I Have a Little Dreidel on Hanukkah. Clear icons indicate teaching opportunities that reinforce developmental skills such as language development, large motor activities, art experiences, science explorations, and math games. Teachers also learn how to use the songs, recipes, and holiday stories featured at the Jewish and Me website--www.behrmanhouse.com/jam.
