GRADE 5                                                       

In Grade 5, the children’s study of Hebrew and prayer expands as they learn the Avot v’Imahot, Shalom Rav, Oseh Shalom, Lecha Dodi, V’shamru and Shalom Aleichem. Students have ample opportunity to practice their Hebrew reading this year to strengthen their skills as they prepare for their b’nei mitzvah. We also study the Jewish life cycle from birth through death and the many Jewish customs associated with life events. We also learn about the State of Israel—its creation in the wake of the Holocaust, its people, cities, religions, government, politics, foods, and culture—and continue to find deeper meaning in the themes of Shabbat and all the Jewish holidays. For Purim, Grade 5 enjoys the privilege and responsibility of creating and running our Temple-wide annual Purim Carnival! 

SHABBAT DINNER + SERVICE

Each class has the opportunity to gather as a grade for a Shabbat service and dinner.
