Everyone enjoyed a quiet Wednesday this evening as our seventh graders resumed their unit on social entrepreneurship by looking at how students can get involved in making a difference through direct service. Sixth grade dove deeper into learning about the four quarters of Israel, particularly focusing on the Armenian Quarter. On Sunday they will examine the Museum Quarter. In Hebrew, the sixth graders completed their thank you letters to God and reviewed their Passover prayers.
Our fifth graders continued their work on the G'vurot, and have finished half the prayer. Taking a step back and looking at all they have learned to date, they recapped and were impressed to see how many prayers they have memorized! In Judaic Studies, they talked about conversion and Judaism. By reading the story of Ruth - the story of the first conversion - the students were able to recognize the positive manner in which conversion is viewed by Jews from all over.
Fourth Grade continued studying their Passover prep, including the Four Questions, and retold the Passover story using key Hebrew words. The also played a fun game related to the V'ahavta. See you on Sunday!
