A package of comprehensive material is provided with each course developed by the Machon.
The Machon provides a unique Teacher’s Guide associated with each of its courses. Daily lesson plans, with clear instructions on the utilization of all course material, are organized in a manner proven to be effective for yeshivah students. Planning documents, learning goals, guiding questions, instructions for differentiation, and Common Core aligned standards have been produced for each unit of every course.
Teacher’s Guide Sampler
Teachers are provided with Course Readers for all of their students. These beautifully formatted and organized books allow students to easily follow along with the required readings for their classes. All texts have been deemed appropriate for yeshivah use by the Machon’s Rabbinic Board.
Course Reader Sample
In order to ensure that teachers can effectively analyze text with their students, an annotated version of each Course Reader has been created. In the marginalia of each reading, comments discussing literary techniques and Torah connections are explicated for easy use. Additionally, prompts for student discussion and material relevant to assignments are noted next to relevant passages of each reading.
Annotated Course Reader Sample
Assignments, in both hard copy and digital formats, are available for all students enrolled in each Machon course. Digital versions can be integrated into Google Classroom and other online formats.
