Faith & Fate seizes the attention of today’s sound-byte savvy audience. It is vital in giving our children a sense of vision: an understanding of the present and a head start for the future.”
Faith & Fate’s clear, concise curriculum has the materials that Jewish history teachers always seem to find themselves scrambling for—primary sources, archival footage, maps, and more. An excellent supplement to my Jewish history classes.”
Through no fault of their own, educators struggle to bring Jewish history to life.
Why? Because there is a serious lack of teaching materials to effectively teach Jewish history.
While world history is full of rich resources, Jewish history is relegated to dry, boring lessons with minimal emotional appeal – and minimal impact.
Bombarded with easy-access photos and videos that are often laced with anti-Jewish propaganda, our students need education that cuts through the noise, empowers them with truth, and stays with them forever.
With Rabbi Wein’s teaching materials, educators will find the resources they’re looking for – and students will experience history that opens their minds and captures their hearts.
