School is back in session and that means the High Holidays are right around the corner.  As you begin to plan your lessons for the chagim, we're here to help. We've scoured the web to connect you with some of our favorite web-based resources. 

 

We hope you find these useful!  Please share them with your colleagues and if there is something great missing from our list, please reply and let us know.  

 

Early wishes for a good yom tov,

 

Rabbi Joshua Fenton

Associate Director, Jewish LearningWorks
