Roma & Sam Kaltman Teacher Fellowship

Are you ready to join a community of educators committed to ensuring the lessons of the Holocaust inspire a new generation of upstanders? This fall, join the Nancy & David Wolf Holocaust & Humanity Center’s prestigious cohort of teacher leaders and apply to the Roma & Sam Kaltman Teacher Fellowship. This new, comprehensive program offers a framework for teaching the Holocaust, includes specialized experiences, and builds community with Holocaust educators across the region.

This immersive learning opportunity will be held on Friday, November 10, Saturday, November 11, and Saturday, January 20 at historic Union Terminal.

The fellowship starts with a two-day-in-person experience in November, followed by asynchronous learning sessions on topics relevant to you and your classroom. It will conclude with an in-person experience in January.

As you learn and grow as part of a cohort of dedicated educators, you’ll leave with the foundational knowledge and best practices to teach the Holocaust to today’s students. Beyond opportunities to hear from Holocaust survivors, learn from Holocaust experts, and hone lesson plans, fellows will cultivate long-lasting professional relationships with special experiences including a Shabbat dinner at historic Union Terminal.

Apply today to begin your journey as a 2023 Roma & Sam Kaltman Fellow.

Curricular Resource Highlight—Echoing Voices: Unpacking History

Immerse your students in the first-hand testimonies of local survivors and upstanders by bringing Echoing Voices: Unpacking History to your classroom. Echoing Voices allows students to connect with local Holocaust survivor stories through a unique, hands-on approach. Students listen to first-hand testimony and then unpack a suitcase of primary sources, photographs, and artifacts attributed to a local survivor, liberator, or upstander. Through this inquiry-based approach, students make meaningful connections to the past. Book your suitcase today!
