Hebrew Program

Hebrew learning happens in many different ways at Sukkat Shalom. We offer student only classes and one on one tutoring with our Hebrew tutoring option. If you are moving toward having your child (who will be entering 5th grade in the fall) become a B'nai Mitzvah at Congregation Sukkat Shalom they need to be enrolled in one of our Hebrew offerings and Family School. Hebrew is open to all our 5th, 6th and 7th grade students.

• Review and continue to acquire a Hebrew vocabulary of key words and concepts related to Jewish values, holidays, and literacy
• Play games and drills that reinforce and produce strong and confident Hebrew readers
• Learn and focus on key Hebrew prayers central to the B'nai Mitzvah services at Sukkat Shalom

Master Teacher: Ronit Levy

• Tutoring is an excellent opportunity to work one-on-one with our Master Teacher or Hebrew tutors. This enables students to work at their own pace and schedule. If you are unsure of your child’s schedule for the school year and think that he or she may have other activities that will conflict with Hebrew classes, you should consider the tutoring option
