This site will be updated periodically- please come back and visit. If you are an educator and planning your school curriculum now, and there is a topic listed that you would like material for immediately, e-mail Amy Dorsch at dorsch@uscj.org [1].

Please visit the Resources [2] section of our website to order educational sourcebooks at a variety of great topics. The brochure can be viewed by clicking on the link on the Resources page.

This material, although created for experiential/informal settings of USY and Kadima, can be used within a congregational school environment as well. To see additional ideas for Congregational school-youth group collaboration click here [3]. Please note that some of this material may appear out of date and may need to be revised, however content is still useful and relevant.

These programs differ slightly from what you will find on the program bank page. Most sessions use experiential learning techniques and are best used for:

  • USY Sicha/Limud/Kitah
  • Hebrew High and Congregational School settings
  • Camp programs such as Encampment
  • Summer Programs education sessions

Scroll down to find sessions divided by topic.

Please feel free to request an educational session or submit one by emailing Amy Dorsch at dorsch@uscj.org [1].

Teaching Techniques and Resources

  • Skills for teaching in USY [4]- includes higher level question types, how to lead a discussion and more tips specific to USY settings
  • Leading a Discussion [5]- excellent tips for leading a discussion specific to a USY-type setting. Includes tips on getting teens to talk, “classroom management” and sample modes of discussion.
  • Active Learning Techniques [6]- Ideas for making Jewish learning active
  • Lesson format for experiential/active learning [7]- focuses on process over content- what you want learners to do in order to gain knowledge.
  • Have you checked out MediaMidrash [8], a site owned and operated by Jewish educational publishing company, Behrman House? Media Midrash [8]offers Jewish and secular video and other media on a variety of Jewish topics. It’s a fantastic, creative way to transmit Jewish knowledge the ways youth today learn best. See Links to Jewish Resources [9]on the USY homepage, for more great websites you can access to help you teach!
