The Charlotte Jewish News - April 2010 - Page 11 2010 Mini-CAJE - Creative Aspects of Jewish Education This past Febraary 14 over 80 educators gathered for the Levine- Sklut Judaic Library’s Annual Mini-CAJE teacher workshop. Mini-CAJE, a daylong opportuni ty to foster learning, offers a vari ety of programs to enhance our educators’ skills. This develop ment opportunity is one of the ways in which the Levine-Sklut Judaic Library and Resource Center promotes lifelong Jewish Learning through the generous support of the Lenora Stein Fund for Creative Community Learning and the Blumenthal Foundation. During the first session. Rabbi Micah Streiffer tried to fit his wealth of knowledge on the topic of Jewish History into a 45-minute presentation, while nearby Mandy DiFilipo revealed her secrets for mastering lesson plans. With one session to go, some headed to the teacher resource room to hear Dr. David Verhaagen’s illuminating approach on how to identify and cope with struggling students. Others, who wanted to focus on early learners, saved their spots for Mary B. Moore’s child devel opment presentation. Other pre senters throughout the day includ ed local shaliach Asaf Shenhav and Mariashi Groner, who educat ed teachers on how to incorporate sacred texts into the classroom. Although many teachers yearned for the falafel and chips portion of the development day, it was difficult to shift away from keynote speaker Kirk Martin for even a second. During his pro gram, Boosters Interventions for the 21st Century Classroom, Martin had the room of teachers enraptured by his unique blend of wit, poise, and knowledge on the teaching profession. Through star tling anecdotes and experiences, Martin exposed the audience to the issues such as bullying, impul- sivity and distraction that plague early learners. By the end of the lecture, Martin had modeled a variety of effective options to identify and treat these classroom problems. By the end, the group of educa tors gave a heartfelt ovation for Martin and commented favorably on the day as a whole. ^ Larry Horowitz, CLU, ChFC Financial 5950 Fairview Road, Suite 608 Charlotte, NC 28210 704-556-9982, Fax: 704-369-2918 Helping in the CREATION, PRESERVATION & DISTRIBUTION of your Estate Securities and Investment Advisory Services offered through Woodbury Financial Services, Inc.
