//Who am I?
//Hi!
For me, as a human being and a teacher, getting to know you as a person and as a student, is one of my most important goals. So our first project will be to write about yourselves and who you are. Also… to practice a little bit of Hebrew.
Here is the Guiding Presentation you’ll need to prepare your own.
Grade 8: Intro to Israeli History Course/Current Event Due: Tuesday, September 17th
//The Grade 8 students will be engaging in a new course this year that focuses on Israeli History. Students will explore Israeli history in-depth, starting with the birth of the Zionist movement and continuing through to the present day. Through engaging lessons, multimedia resources, and interactive activities, students will gain a nuanced understanding of the political, cultural, and social developments that have shaped Israel over the past century.

Grade 6 Jewish Life Cycle Slideshow
As we embark on this learning journey together, students have been asked to complete their own River of Life task.
The River of Life is a visual narrative that helps people tell the stories of the past, present, and future. Students may use pictures, words, and phrases to indicate key moments/changes throughout the course of their life
River of Life must include:
- Visuals (drawings or pictures) depicting various moments in your life (5 points)
- A written description of 5-8 complete sentences for each stage explaining a key event relating to each of the following:
-
- The Past
-
- The Present
-
- The Future
This is an opportunity for you to share your story. You decide how it is told! This can be created by hand (on paper) or online via Google Slides/Canva.
Students will have the opportunity to present their River of Life to the class starting on Wednesday, September 18th.
I can’t wait to hear all about your narrative. Check out my example below!
