Foundations of Jewish Family Living is a NEW curriculum for parents that provides a thought-provoking encounter with the core values of Judaism. Developed by the renowned Florence Adult Mini-School, a project of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, the curriculum brings to life the master stories from our tradition and the profound messages they convey. This rich learning experience for adults will provide an opportunity for you to bring the Jewish conversation home to share with your child. At a time in a family's life when a child is experiencing his or her own Jewish education, Foundations of Jewish Living provides you with the learning, the language, and the confidence to be a teacher to your own children and support Jewish learning at home. No homework. No grades. Know Judaism.
Topics include “Protecting Our Eden” [Jewish environmental values], “Making Our Own Miracles” [Hanukkah], “Creating Jewish Space” and more. Classes are accessible, interactive and text-based, with no prerequisites.
Open to all parents of Jewish children regardless of affiliation.
