Grade 7 – Sukkot Jeopardy

amarcovitz / / Uncategorised

This week we focused on the laws of  Sukkot. Two of our students, Talia L. and Sasha S. created a jeopardy game about Sukkot. On Thursday, the Talia and Sasha taught all of grade 7. The following is the description of the game by the students:

We made a jeopardy board for the holidays, and we are going to tell you how to make it. So first we took a bristol board and we wrote sukkot jeopardy at the top. Then we came up with questions to ask our classmates, we had to first add the questions on the bristol board in order. Then we took colored post-it notes and we put them on top of the answers, on the post-it notes we wrote how much each question cost (100, 200, 300, 400, 500) Then above all the questions we added the categories. Then we were done making it.

Grad 7 Weekly Round-Up

amarcovitz / / Uncategorised

Chag Sameach and Good Yor ( a phrase we say to one another during and after Yom Kippur)

One of the focuses in Grade 7 is Israel. 3 times a week the students have to read a recent article about Israel and write a brief summary. During Sukkot we will be having class in the Succa and celebrating this joyous chag through fun educational appropriate activities (Sukkot Jeopardy).

After the Chagim we hope to start a cycle of learning. The students will be split into 3 groups. The topics will be Torah (5 books of Moses), Nevi’im (Prophets, Judges – Kings), and Ketuvim (Writings, the 5 Megilot).
