“Israel 101” is designed to highlight Israel’s expansive history while instilling teens with the confidence to present the history on their own. When faced with anti-Israel claims, teens often feel intimated and unprepared to respond. Our Israel 101 presentation gives teens the information they need to confidently address any claims they may face about Israeli history or the current situation by providing them with historical context. The program is interactive in order to engage the students and ensure active participation. Israel 101 covers the 3,000 years of Jewish presence in the land of Israel, explores the re-establishment of the state in 1948, and ultimately culminates with Israel’s position today.
