Greener Pastures to start conversations around resilience and mental health in
your classrooms and community. The film follows the travails of four US midwest

🌍 In honor of #WorldRefugeeDay, we are showcasing films that provide a personal perspective on the experiences of migrants, refugees and displaced persons around the world. Our teaching materials for these films support students in practicing compassion and humility and making meaningful attempts to understand why refugees flee their homes, what their lives are like, and how everyday people can get involved to help. For grades 4-12.

#DearTeachers,

We received #complaints for not recognizing the Christian holiday of Yom Saint Francis Ha’Kadosh in our #holiday greetings. Last we checked, this holiday was on Tishrei 19th but in fact the holiday does NOT follow normal dates and follows a #Christian #religious #calendar...

#DearTeachers,

As you may know if you have any students in your class who identify as Christian, they may ask to be excused from school to observe the #Christian #holiday of “Christmas,” more popularly referred to as Yom Christmas.

In addition, you asked if you could buy the cookies. Technically you can but it is a #BakeSale and everyone expects home-baked goods. If you are shomer treyf at home, we can make the school kitchen available to you to bake the cookies, for a small fee.

Thanks for writing.

If you want to bring Moon Cakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival, or explain to the class about how the rabbit lays eggs for Yom Saint Francis Ha’Kadosh, whatever your family’s Tishrei #tradition is, we would love to hear about it!

…or demonstrate your family’s extra special simanim seder for #RoshHashanah.

Or maybe a demonstration of how to cook bubbe’s famous dairy kugel recipe that you eat for break fast each year?

Use your imagination, be creative!
