Sunday Curriculum Overview for Pre - 5th Grades

As an experiential program, we strive to share an experience with our students that feels whole, connected and meaningful. Each week, our preschool - 5th grade classes focus as a community on a Jewish value, or middah, around the theme of introducing our individual and collective stories as Jewish people through the Four Worlds model. The Four Worlds model connects us through body, mind, heart and soul. 

What are the “Four Worlds?” Bringing framework and flow for our curriculum: 

    - Atzilut: Accessing Torah’s mystical wisdom (emanation)

    - Briyah: Conciousness and thought (creation) 

    - Yetzirah: Relationships and emotion (formation) 

    - Assiyah: Action - building, making and doing (action)

Each week, our educators work to create an enriching time of learning. While each class focuses on the same parasha and value, the learning activities and curricula are designed to provide meaning, challenge and a positive learning opportunity for each group of students. 

Why experiential learning? Experiential learning is closely connected to Renewal thought and philosophy.
