Schools Batia's work with schools is a true success story. Working with students and teachers in the classroom, Batia helps bring to life topics from the curriculum, by putting together gorgeous exhibit displays made by the children in the class, with Batia's guidance. These exhibits are not only impressive and a true learning experience, they also are a source of pride to each and every one of the students, teachers, parents, and schools that participated in their making. Academic Benefits Exploring and developing student's artistic expression. Study of Jewish heritage and biblcal times through the setting and dressing of the figure. Describing the creation in Hewbrew and English using historical source or personal ideas. Gives student sense of achievment via personal creation.
