Jewish Education 40223A: Building A Jewish Life:Curriculum & Concepts in Jewish Early Childhood Education
3.00 Credits
Gratz College
This course is founded on theories of how children learn and make meaning in their lives, including their development of spiritual and Judaic concepts. An approach for developing learning strategies which are supported by these developmental theories will be reviewed. This approach requires the close and authentic involvement of adults and children in negotiating learning situations of all kinds. Our study will demand not only an understanding of theory and practice, but also of personal dispositions of both young and adult learners, including ourselves. In the process of our study, the various elements of this approach will be reviewed, with Jewish learning as the content through which the methods are demonstrated. These elements include observation, planning, structuring the environment, supporting relationship building, and making learning visible. Division: College Division Department: Jewish Education

Jewish Education 40230: Spirituality,Ritual and Prayer in the Jewish Early Childhood Classroom:Daily Practices and Shabbat
3.00 Credits
Gratz College
The search for spiritual meaning begins in the earliest years of life. In this course, the expression of spirituality in Judaism as well as current theories of faith and spiritual development will be discussed to provide essential background knowledge for students who wish to facilitate this search for young children, their families, for colleagues, and for themselves. As such, this information will be primarily descriptive rather than definitive, and will be used to explore meaningful experiences in prayer and ritual, as well as maximizing the spiritual content of daily life in the early childhood classroom. The daily service will be examined for content that is relevant to young children, and appropriate as well as authentic methods for presenting this content will be discussed. Criteria for evaluating publications of ritual and prayer experiences for young children in Jewish contexts will be developed, using the daily service as a platform. As a culmination, the Shabbat experience will be explored in order to allow students to synthesize their own prayer and ritual experiences for young children. Throughout the course, the class will discuss methods of addressing issues that arise for adults (teachers and parents) when exploring spirituality, ritual and prayer. The role of Israel in prayer and ritual will also be highlighted. Finally, spirituality, ritual and prayer will be considered for their power in inspiring a sense of community within the early childhood program setting. (this course may be taken for either Rabbinics or Education credit) Division: College Division Department: Jewish Education
