Temple Beth-El Hebrew School

Temple Beth-El’s Hebrew School program is held for our third through seventh graders on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday afternoons from 4:30 – 6:30 PM. The specific weekday assigned to each child is determined through our registration process, where family preference and school class sizes are taken into account.

The mid-week Hebrew curriculum teaches and helps our students develop Hebrew-language skills through classroom instruction and activities and weekly t’fillah (worship). Students learn to read and write Hebrew, and study basic Hebrew grammar and the concept of roots and related vocabulary. They learn the meaning of key prayers in the Friday evening and Shabbat morning services, and to read and chant these prayers. Torah trope (cantillation) is taught in grade 6.
