Musical Collaboration Springs from Education Bridge

Listen to this beautiful poem put to music - a direct outcome of the partnership between Modi'in's Idanim School and Rochester's Temple Sinai religious school. Maya, a fifth grader at Idanim, wrote a beautiful poem after Susan Krasner, leader of Temple Sinai's Sasson choir and a member of the last educators' delegation to Modi'in, led a workshop for Maya's class. Susan then wrote music for the poem and her class sang and recorded the song at a professional sound studio! Just click here.
