Curriculum / Study Guides

How do stories of women in Torah reflect the complexity of our own lives? How can art can help us deepen our connections to these ancient texts? The Girls in Trouble Curriculum brings women in Torah to life through art, text, and personal reflection.

The Curriculum is a series of modular study guides created by musician and Jewish educator Alicia Jo Rabins. Study guides are geared towards teens and adults; some can be adapted for younger learners. Whether you are looking to go deep on your own, in a small group, or to lead a class, come join us on a journey into the world of women in Torah!

Each study guide comes as a download in individual, small group, or institution versions. “Extended” units include visual art in addition to text. Explore a single unit, or combine in any order to make a series. Downloads include a beautifully designed PDF with sources, annotations, Alicia’s essays, and guiding questions; a PowerPoint; and an mp3 of the Girls in Trouble song. “Small group” and “institution” versions include a student handout.
