A 5th grade Judaic studies teacher is going to have her students - working in teams - study some of the major Tanna'im, most likely some but not all of Hillel, Akiba, Yohanan ben Zakkai, Elazar ben Azariah, Tarfon, Rabban Gamliel II, Yehudah ha-Nasi. They will be presenting their work in a variety of formats, e.g., a report, a skit, a mock newspaper article. I'm compiling resources for them, and most of what I find is aimed at adults. Can anyone recommend sources - written, recorded, online, etc. - at a 5th grade or even middle school level?
Of course the teacher told me about this today, and the kids are starting the project tomorrow, so I'd love to hear from you sooner rather than later. Thanks in advance!
