EDUCATING 2 GETHER

Living bridge is the key engine in developing our continuous partnership with the GMW committee. We are looking to expand the number of adult and children in Arad that have a personal relationship to their peers in GMW. This project will be a model that will first involve teachers from Arad and GMW and latter will lead into joint programs from schools in Arad and GMW. The project can also be a pilot for more 'interest based living bridge projects' Two educators groups working together for a year; training on Jewish and Israel Education with the goal of building joint educational projects which will impact both communities. The project consists of four components; 1) Learning about Jewish and Israel education (theory) 2) Mapping the field in each community (GMW and Arad) 3) Encounter in which the educators will teach/learn from each other 4) Developing programming which can be used by additional educators in each community.
