Our new HSRS curriculum: Shalom Learning
To not only maintain the integrity of our school but to elevate the learning experience for all of our children we have purchased and are implementing an exciting new (to us) religious school curriculum created by Shalom Learning. The lesson plans from Shalom Learning were created and curated by leaders in the Jewish education field from all over the world. In the absence of a religious school director we have retained Shalom Learning to provide ongoing professional development for our teachers throughout the year to support them as they implement this exciting new curriculum.
Shalom Learning is a values based curriculum. Here is the curriculum overview provided by Shalom Learning:
Grades k-2 https://www.shalomlearning.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/K-2-Overview.pdf
Grades 3-7 https://www.shalomlearning.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/3-7-Grade-Overview-1.pdf
Through Shalom Learning we have also adopted the Torah Aura Hebrew Curriculum. The Torah Aura curriculum consists of decoding (learn to read skills) that include Tefillah-based and conversational Hebrew vocabulary words. It incorporates Total Physical Response (TPR) activities to encourage movement as well as activities and virtual tours of different Israeli locations. There is also a t’fillot component of the instruction. The Tefillot (prayers) teaches the general and literal meaning of 27 prayers. Students learn ways to connect to the prayer, read and chant it, and understand the shoresh (root) of keyword(s) within the prayer. There are video introductions and stories for each prayer.
