GRADE 3 - SACRED TIMES, SACRED LIFE

Sunday 9:00-11:45 am OR Wednesday 4:15-6:15 pm

Our third grade core curriculum revolves around the Jewish concept of time. We learn about the Jewish calendar, marking time by the phases of the moon and the holidays.

Students investigate the central values of Jewish life through the symbols, activities, celebrations, and observance of the three festival holidays: Sukkot, Pesach, and Shavuot.

Our students begin their personal search for knowledge of God and a life rooted in Jewish spirituality. They explore Jewish concepts of God and holiness and the language we use to think and talk about them.

Our students move through a systematic reading skills program designed to enable them to read Hebrew with confidence and fluency.
