“As teachers we know that students learn not only from what we teach but from how we teach and from who we are as we teach. Grishaver’s new book teaches us ways in which the ‘how’ and the ‘who’ can be deeply infused with Jewish ideas and values. Individual educators can certainly benefit from reading the book, but it would be an invaluable to read it b’hevruta — with a study buddy or a study group. Conversations about the ideas and how to enact them in your own setting could transform both the professional culture and school climate”
