Important Info for 2012/13! Informational Letter | Family Handbook | 2012-13 Religious School Calendar Shalom! Welcome to University
Synagogue Religious School! Here at University
you will find a warm school community that cares
about the learning of each individual student.
Our school believes in a Jewish education that
involves six content areas to promote building
a strong Jewish identity, developing a school
community, and holding an open, creative classroom.
Our content areas in grades K-7 are: |
|
|
|
Chagim: Shabbat & Holidays |
|
|
Am Yisrael: Jewish
Identity |
|
K’lal Yisrael:
Community & History |
|
Eretz Yisrael: Land
of Israel |
|
Talmud Torah: Jewish
Literature |
|
Ivrit V-T’Filah:
Hebrew & Prayer |
|
| |
These subject areas provide
the roots of your child's education and Jewish
identity. When we tend to these roots - nurturing
them and allowing them to grow and develop, your
child can have a strong Jewish identity, rooted
in a deep understanding of what Judaism is all
about. These content areas are highly developed
and introduced as early as Kindergarten: material
is age-appropriate and allows for a "spiral" of
learning where concepts are developed on a deeper
level year after year. |
| |
In addition to these subjects,
students in grades K-7 hold weekly t'filah (services)
and enjoy the talents of our specialists in the
fields of Rikud (Israeli dance) and Shira (music).
Students have the opportunity to participate in
a variety of field trips, from visits to the Zimmer
Museum to hands-on social action projects. |
