Fourth Grade Hebrew

 

Our goal in fourth grade Hebrew is to have our students be comfortable in Reading, Writing, and understanding Biblical and Conversational Hebrew.  We read stories and compose our own compositions, using correct grammar, gender and tense. 

 

Some of our students have returned from trips to Israel and shared stories with the class, how they spoke in Hebrew to Israelis, understood conversations on Egged busses and even ordered a meal in a restaurant... ALL IN HEBREW!

 

We learn Humash, Navi, the Jewish holidays and Shabbat, and focus on davening correctly and with kavanah.  Our students learn beautifully, make their parents proud in shul and participate in the Seder with their families and shine!

 

We instill a life-long love of Torah, Israel and the Jewish People.

 

 

Fourth Grade General Studies 

 

 

          Our 4th graders are always very busy.  Our days are filled with math, science, social studies, vocabulary, grammar and spelling.  Whew!  These students can never say there is nothing to do.  In addition to all of that, the students choose a daily “idiom.”  Idioms are a great tool with which to learn the subtleties and the abstract nature of the English language.  By the end of the year, they’ll have their own Idiom Books bound and created by themselves.

 

          The 6th Grade encompasses many areas in math and science throughout the school year.  In math, the students begin with reviewing place value concepts with multiple digits, double and triple digit multiplication, division, decimals, algebra, fractions, geometry and much more.  We work on study skills, research and note taking in science along with many hands-on fun filled science experiments on numerous scientific concepts.  The students learn to take notes and highlight important facts. 

 

We instill not only knowledge of science but an appreciation of the intricacies of the world around us.
