About this Curriculum
This text-based curriculum is designed to study women in the Bible, many of whom faced issues similar to those faced by teenagers today. The Bible then serves as a basis to discuss contemporary issues confronting students, such as body image, self-esteem, beauty, sex, power, spirituality, relationships, and Jewish identity.
This curriculum is meant for middle and high schoolers in a religious school setting. It was written by Rabbi Arianna Gordon, 2007 HUC School of Education graduate.
