#LearningCommunity
Instructor: Dr. Esty Gross
Dates & Times: Tuesdays, October 27 – December 1, 2026, 8pm-9:30pm EST

The reality of a heterogeneous Hebrew classroom can be challenging in terms of planning lessons and teaching a class with students from a range of proficiency levels, learning styles and interests. Teaching can be even more challenging if you have ongoing behavior issues with your learners. For teachers to teach and for students to learn, teachers need to establish routines and mutual respect in their classroom that are grounded in equitable educational philosophy. In this course we will review and analyze examples of classroom policies, procedures and norms for student engagement and draft a plan to support equitable student engagement that meets your students, your style and your school’s policies and culture.
