Your Yom Ha'Atzmaut 2020 Game Plan

Yom Ha'Atzmaut 2020 learning and celebration; getting your game plan ready. 

Yom Ha'Atzmaut is just around the corner - are you ready to celebrate Israel’s 72nd birthday? During this time of social distance from community, we have an opportunity to cultivate our students’ connections to their larger Jewish community – the State, people and land of Israel. Gain knowledge, resources and practical ideas that can be directly applied to your Yom Ha'Atzmaut teaching and celebration. We will learn from Rich Walter, VP of Curriculum and Outreach at the Center for Israel Education, who will share knowledge, resources and practical ideas that can be directly applied to your Yom Ha'Atzmaut teaching and celebration, and from practitioners who have recently reinvented their plans to deliver content rich and meaningful learning experiences virtually. Join us and colleagues to get your Yom Ha'Atzmaut learning game plan ready!
