Included in this holiday companion are eight divrei torah written by Pardes faculty, accompanied by interactive activities and discussion questions, crafted by the Pardes Center for Jewish Educators team, which draw on the content or illuminating idea in each d’var torah. These activities—with options for younger kids as well as teens and young adults—can be used by families, teachers or synagogue educators to create dynamic, educational and fun learning experiences for their children and students, all grounded in the themes of Hanukah.
