Modules
The digital classroom of the Jewish Museum Berlin introduces students aged 12 (grade 7) and up to Jewish history and contemporary life in Germany following an object-focused, interactive, and dialogue-based approach. They will need tablets or smartphones, headphones, and your supervision. Plan your class time using full, ready-made modules or fit in mini-lessons of your choice.
What does a Jewish hero have to do with a secret, a villain, and big celebrations? Students aged 12 and up learn about the story of Purim and its hero, Esther. Whether fact or fiction, the story and its core message are still meaningful to Jews celebrating the holiday to this day.
A necklace, a jersey, a narrow box and a head covering—what do they all have in common? This learning module explores the ways Jewish people navigate antisemitism in daily life and how showing or hiding their Jewish identity is always a matter of safety.
Can memory have a flavor? Students will explore the role of food and memory during the holiday of Passover, when the story of the Exodus from Egypt is retold every year.
