Museum of Jewish Heritage Field Trip

Though it was rainy and wet the middle school students ventured out to NYC to visit the Museum of Jewish Heritage.  I was with the 7th graders as they followed our guide Chuck for about an hour and a half through the museum.  We learned about the heritage of the Jewish people, the tragedy of the Holocaust as well as some modern day atrocities in Africa.  Please ask your students about their experience, they were all very attentive and learned a lot.
