Israel History Month is here!
This November, help your students fall in love with Israel through nuanced, thought-provoking content and activities.
Israel is much more than a land of conflict, war, and hardship. It’s a country with a vibrant history, diverse cultures, and fascinating stories. Explore these different facets with your students through our special Israel History Month lesson plans: unpacking Zionism, Israeli society and diversity, and current events.
Lesson 01 Zionism explained
Approach the history of the modern State of Israel through engaging lessons on Zionism, Israeli culture, and the history of the Jewish people in the Land of Israel.
Lesson 02 Israeli life and diversity
Israel is a melting pot of different cultures and peoples. Help your students explore the country’s incredible diversity through these engaging lessons.
Lesson 03 Current events
With the news surrounding Israel changing by the minute, it’s hard to keep up with everything the tiny country is facing. Use our resources on current events to help students understand the daily reality in Israel and what brought us to these moments.
For Younger Learners Unpacked Jr.
Specially produced for 8-11 year olds, these resources explore the history of Israel and its relationship to the Jewish people through an animated series and companion podcast. Use the lesson plans to nurture elementary school-aged children’s knowledge of and positive connection to Israel this November.
