This curriculum guide aims to teach LGBTQ+ education (which are referred to in this guide as “terms and topics”) through original musical theatre based on Jewish texts (these musical theatre pieces are called Jewsicals). In this curriculum, LGBTQ+ education are the facts surrounding the LGBTQ+ community. We will explore each letter of the acronym (as well as others) so that learners have a well-rounded knowledge of terms. Through Jewsicals, we will also explore the social-emotional aspect of LGBTQ+ education, such as with coming out, homophobia/transphobia, and celebrating the community.
