Kindergarten

Our main goal is to make Jewish learning fun by having the children take part in a variety of activities such as stories, songs, music, dance and crafts.

Jewish Holidays - Stories and instruction focus on what we do on the particular holiday at home, in the synagogue and at school.

Food and Blessings - Food and blessings associated with the holiday are highlighted.

Shabbat - Shabbat instruction includes blessings over the wine, challah and candles. The students will also learn the first line of the Shema.

Aleph bet - The children are introduced to the Hebrew alphabet. They learn age appropriate Hebrew words associated with the letters learned.

Jewish Symbols - The students become familiar with the following symbols: tzedakah box, mezzuzah, havdalah candle, spice box, challah cover, candlesticks, Star of David, etc.
