TORAH
(BIBLE) AND JEWISH HISTORY
The children are introduced to the characters and stories of the Bible. They are given an overview of Jewish history starting with creation to the giving of the Torah to modern day Israel.
HOLIDAYS
Hands-on lessons on each Jewish holiday will fill the calendar as we proceed from Rosh Hashanah and the High Holidays through the holiday of Shavuot. The students will have a deeper understanding of each holiday, traditions and customs. Chabad of Kendall Hebrew School will also host holiday celebrations for our students and their families.
JEWISH VALUES AND ETHICS
(Grades 2-7) using various texts, the students will read and discuss stories and case scenarios that have practical application to our every day life. They will understand that our religion is based on G‑d given set of values and morals.
MITZVOT: WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
Why do women light Shabbat candles? Why is Shabbat such a special day in this week? Why do we have Mezuzah on our doors? We will teach basic Mitzvot to grade K-1 and provide insightful meaning of more complex Mitzvot to grades 2-7.
ARTS AND CRAFTS
Art projects are incorporated into our curriculum to add excitement to the upcoming holidays and mitzvoth. Our projects will have Jewish holiday and Mitzvot themes and will add a taste of Jewish life at home. The younger students will be doing art more often than the older grades.
EXTRA CURRICULAR
Chabad of Kendall Hebrew School will offer a variety of extra curricular activities such as special guests, Friday night dinners, field trips and contests. These events will allow our students to experience Judaism in it’s entirety.
