1st
Teacher: Aya Gonen 
The curriculum of the first grade focuses on the Jewish home. The students will create their own miniature Jewish homes and will make small ritual objects to add to them as they learn about the holiday and Shabbat home celebrations. There will be family programs which are designed to provide families with the tools they need to bring Jewish ritual into their homes. Throughout their study of the Jewish home the first graders will explore key Hebrew vocabulary words and their initial letters. Jewish holidays will be experienced through ritual, stories, and special projects.
Kindergarten and first grade families are invited to a Shabbat Dinner and service especially for them on October 19th at 6:00. We’ll have dinner in the adult lounge and have an appropriate singing and storytelling service immediately following
