A Toast to JAHM: 20 Years of Celebrating Jewish American Heritage Month
May 13 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm EDT
Get ready to spread some serious cultural appreciation! Join ICS for a high-energy JAHM Session, celebrating the 20th anniversary of Jewish American Heritage Month (JAHM). We know you’re juggling a million things, so we’re providing everything you need to make JAHM a sweet addition to your May curriculum. There are four opportunities to JAHM with us, so choose the date that works best for you!
What’s on the Menu?
- Wait, Why Heritage Months?: A quick dive into why heritage months are essential for a sense of belonging and historical accuracy.
- Spreading Understanding: The main dish—our “Condensed JAHM Content.” We use the complexity of the Jewish American experience (as both an ethnicity and a religion) to provide you with a master toolkit for discussing any complex identity group. Learn how to facilitate nuanced conversations using primary sources and demographic data that highlight both visible and invisible attributes.
- The ICS “JAHM-Sized” Mini Lessons: Get exclusive access to ICS’s 7 bite-sized lessons. They’re perfectly portioned to sprinkle into your schedule all May long, making classroom celebration easy.
NOTE:
While stipend funding is no longer available, we hope you find the learning experience both enjoyable and deeply impactful for your instruction.
