Chadis Crafts' Fun Pages

JEWISH PARENT AND TEACHER RESOURCE LINKS

This page was designed to help parents, scout leaders and teachers find information about crafts and were to order often hard to find supplies. As a former teacher trainer and member of many education committees, I just can't resist listing sites I find on the net that look helpful to teachers.

I have divided these pages (again!) into multiple pages: Parent/Teacher Resource Page for supplies and resources that are of general interest and Jewish Parent/Teacher Resource Page. I suggest that Jewish teachers look carefully through both pages as many of the basic skills and lessons listed are invaluable and can be applied to any setting. Now I have divided the Jewish resource pages into resources and a new Jewish supply sources.
