Lamorim
Art and craft sheets, a toolkit for teatchers
This second project for Lamorim came from a simple, real problem: teachers often run out of craft ideas for Jewish holidays. So Lamorim created a full library of art and craft sheets, one for each major holiday, Chavouot, Hanukkah, Pesach, Purim, Rosh Hashana, Sukkot and Tu BiShvat, adapted to four grade levels: CP, CE1, CE2, and CM1/CM2 combined.
Take the Hanukkah sheet as an example: students create a self-portrait on a spinning top, inspired by Andy Warhol's pop art style. The sheet walks the teacher through everything, prerequisites, learning objectives, skills targeted, step-by-step instructions, even a follow-up activity idea. Real structure, ready to use.
To make all of this work together, I built a colour-coded graphic system to tell grade levels apart at a glance, and adapted each sheet's design to match the spirit of its holiday, like the dreidels and menorah illustrations here for Hanukkah. Above all, the sheets had to be clear. These are tools meant to save teachers time, not add more to their plate.
