Educational Materials
Let
KOACH enhance your Jewish life calendar with our monthly education
packets.
This is just one of the myriad of ways that KOACH helps augment
your on-campus programming. These packets are designed to be adjustable
for available time and student background. They can be utilized for lunch
and learns, Shabbat learning, round-table conversations, and more. Packets
include text sheets (Hebrew, transliteration, and English), background
information, session leader materials and other related resources. It is
our hope that these materials will encourage conversations about the
materials and their relevance to students’ lives.
New packets will be added frequently. (Join
our e-list to be informed as new material is added.)
