"Kol hakavod! This is great material. I loved the example lesson re kindness and Rebecca, but I did get a bit stuck on the math question and how much water the camels could drink. I just started thinking about camels, and if they are sloppy when drinking thirty gallons of water. But what I really thought clever is how you have the kids either circle or square off passages in the text. I have always found getting kids to zero in on a text challenging because they tend to answer from memory, or answer what they think to be true without actually referencing the text. Your technique will get them to look at the text which I am sure is in part your objective.
Anyway, I’m going to return to the math question and I’ll try to get you an answer later today."

“The transition from our previous curriculum has been absolutely seamless. Positively Torah is a fantastic new addition to Jewish Education."
Yaffa, New York
I love using Positively Torah. The curriculum is so well written and easy to use. It forces our learners to dig deep and think hard. They feel intellectually and emotionally challenged. They love it. I am seeing evidence of them becoming more resilient, stronger and more self confident.

Our learners love Positively Torah's strength based approach. Combining Torah and Positive Psychology is an unbeatable combination. What a game changer!
Debbie, New York
As our tweens explore bible heroes' strengths and weaknesses, Positively Torah's strength based approach, and meaty and engaging interactive materials, has helped our tweens connect more deeply with Judaism and embrace their unique superpowers. Along the way, they have become less anxious and more self confident. What a gift!

"In the past, we have had endless difficulties from teachers and parents upon implementing new curricula. In contrast, the transition to Positively Torah has been exemplary."
Robin, New York
"Positively Torah provides a rich and thoughtful curricular approach. What surprised me most is the cohesive and community building effect it has had on our classroom. Hakarat HaTov or Strength Spotting has had a profound effect on our class. They are kinder to each other, and they have become much closer. I can't say enough about Positively Torah !"
"These materials are so well written and are such powerful tools to connect modern ideas about character strengths to Jewish values and texts. Kol Hakavod–what an impressive curriculum!"
