It is the rare school year, indeed, when we get a full month to explore the unique customs and spiritual significance of Elul with our students before chaggei tishrei (the Tishrei holidays) are upon us. Below are a few activity suggestions, questions, prompts and resources to inspire you to make the most of this time of year. We encourage you to pick and choose from the list below and tailor these suggestions to best meet the needs of your students.
