Open in new tab Shalom grade 6,
Here is the homework you need to do for Reading Week – in case that you have not finished the following activity in class.
Enjoy listening to this song, which is about all the things children need to do…
Have a good vacation,
Gonen
1. Listen to the Hebrew children’s song: הצריך הזה “This ‘needing-to'”.
2. Use the song lyrics on the next page to locate all the שמות פועל – names of verbs – in the song.
If needed, use the dictionary.
3. The song ends with the words:
ומרוב שהצטרכתי –
כבר שכחתי
מה אני רוצה.
And due to “needing to” so much –
I forgot
What do I want.
In one or two sentences, please answer: what is the song about?
Grade 6, 7 & 8 core Hebrew
//שלום לכולם
לימודי הליבה בעברית מתמקדים כרגע בשני מסלולים
בשלוש הכיתות התלמידים עובדים בעזרת התכנים בחוברות הלימוד ודפי עבודה שמוכנים במיוחד עבורם ולומדים על יסודות השפה
במקביל, כיתות ז’ ו-ח’ עושים פרויקטים תוך שהם מבצעים חזרה על החומר שלמדו עד כה
עדכונים וטעימות נוספות ממה שהתלמידים מכינים, ומהחוויה הלימודית יגיעו בהמשך!
שיהיה יום חמים
גונן
Shalom everyone!
We are learning Hebrew core in two main ways at the moment.
The baseline is that we learn about the foundations of Hebrew linguistics such as: verbs conjugation, basic Hebrew building blocks like male/female words, singular/plural, and so fourth.
We do that by following the text books – in all three classes – and having additional tailored assignments for each class.
In grade 7 & 8 we further the learning by personal projects. Each class is working on a particular project. The students incorporate their earlier learning of this year into the project.
Updates, assignments, reflections and tastes of class actions will be posted soon.
Stay warm and safe,
Gonen
Grades 6-8: Jewish Studies 2/12 Shabbat Table Discussion
//Today in Jewish Studies, we will look at various sources/ideas regarding peer pressure. This content connects to each course in its own way. I have highlighted the five questions that each group should complete on the attached document.
In an effort to save time and promote discussion, I prefer that this activity be complete in groups of 3-4 students. You will only need to submit one answer sheet per group.
