Yes next Wednesday is Jerusalem Dday. It is also Student Day at the
tertiary level institutions.
 There are a lot of things going on in Jerusalem. A guided tour within
Jerusalem ( in English of course) is a great way to teach about this day.
But most of us will be in our normal classrooms, so.....
Need ideas information, songs, word activities and classroom activities to
do with Jerusalem Day? Have a look at my materials in "Cycle of the Jewish
Year."

 The site can also be accessed through the ETNI site
 (elementary teachers - holidays - cycle of the Jewish year)

 Feedback appreciated. You can contact me at
 bev@xxxxxxxxxxx

I suggest you use Explorer to access my material.

 HAG SAMEACH.
