A Wonderful Start to a New Year of Jewish Learning!
It was wonderful welcoming our families to Miss Sylvia’s class orientation and sharing all the meaningful experiences our children will participate in throughout the year.
Miss Sylvia spoke with families about how she brings Jewish traditions, prayer, music, movement, and hands-on learning together. Throughout the year, students learn about Shabbat, Havdalah, Jewish holidays, prayers and blessings, Hebrew and Jewish songs, and even Israeli dancing! 🇮🇱🎶
Each grade also has special experiences designed just for them. Our Pre-K and Kindergarten students participate in a Creation Program/Shabbat experience, introducing them to the story of Creation while connecting their learning to the beauty and traditions of Shabbat. 🌎🌳🕯️
Our 1st graders participate in a Hebrew Naming Ceremony, our 2nd graders celebrate Havdalah together, and students in 3rd through 7th grade have opportunities to participate in and help lead Shabbat services in May of next year. Our 6th and 7th graders also explore Jewish values and our connection to the earth through a special hydroponics program. 🌱
These experiences are about so much more than learning prayers or songs. They are about helping our children understand who they are, where our traditions come from, and what it means to be part of the Jewish community. ❤️
Thank you to all of our families who joined us for orientation. We are looking forward to a beautiful year of learning, singing, celebrating, growing, and creating Jewish memories together! ✡️💙
