Grades: 4-7 Â Â The Circle of Jewish LIfe is a textbook for students studying the major lifecycle events. This is a textbook filled with texts and activities that will allow students to understand the importance of Jewish life events. From birth to death, with stops on the way to talk about the importance of family obligation and events, Torah events, marriage, and the realities of getting older. The book is rich in Jewish texts, stories, and opportunities to learn the Jewish lifecycle's vocabulary and concepts.
The Circle of Jewish Life:
- Empower students to participate meaningfully in the broad range of Jewish lifecycle events.
- Every chapter includes traditional texts, complete scripts of lifecycle ceremonies, art projects, and stories.
- Focus on the diversity of Jewish life, with elements that address adoption, divorce, gay marriage, and mourning.
- Chapters on lifelong Jewish learning, aging, and conversion expand the understanding of the Jewish lifecycle beyond Brit milah, b’nai mitzvah, and weddings.
The Circle of Jewish Life, originally published just under twenty years ago, badly needed a visual facelift and an update in graphics and language. We worked to update the look, language, and illustrations to make the textbook more modern and inclusive and better represent your students and their needs.Â
