SUMMARY:Beit Sefer (Thursdays)
DESCRIPTION:Judaic studies and prayer-based Hebrew instruction are taught for one hour each on Thursdays and Sundays. We use the Reform Movement’s Chai curriculum which is based on the fundamental pillars of Judaism: Torah (text)\, Avodah (worship)\, and Gemilut Chasadim (acts of loving-kindness). \nTogether with our Cantor and teachers\, students focus on specific aspects of the prayer service and engage in Gemilut Chasadim and Mitzvot that improve our world. Each grade level also focuses on age-appropriate aspects of the Jewish holidays as well as the people and land of Israel. Special events and programs for parents/caregivers with students are included throughout the school year.

SUMMARY:Gesher (Thursdays)
DESCRIPTION:Gesher (the Hebrew word for bridge) is designed to bridge the growth of our 7th grade students from children in the Jewish community to being adults. \nOur students spend this year advancing their understanding of Judaism as a religion\, community\, and culture as they begin the next stage of their Jewish identities. \nGesher’s goal is to help students identify their values and ways to live accordingly — an important skill at an age full of change. The Gesher curriculum explores the themes of peoplehood\, identity\, sexuality and relationships\, leadership\, spirituality\, and religious pluralism through a Jewish lens. Gesher is an environment that nurtures conversation. That’s why we spend this time exploring social issues including religious pluralism\, mental health\, technology safety\, and healthy friendships. \nA significant portion of the year is dedicated to learning and discussing issues relating to relationships\, their bodies\, and sex and sexuality in a safe and non-judgmental environment. Trained educators help facilitate age-appropriate learning and growth that goes beyond what is included in a public school’s education to more fully explore the spiritual and emotional elements involved in these issues. Utilizing lessons from the Our Whole Lives curriculum together with original content developed by Beth Emet educators\, students are prepared to make thoughtful and informed choices as young Jews. \nWe believe that seventh grade is a critical year in the development of identity both Jewish and otherwise. The Gesher program helps students and parents navigate what can be a challenging experience in a way that promotes the love of Judaism\, a sense of community\, and healthy relationships. \n*To accommodate for the time 7th graders spend studying for their Kabbalat Mitzvah outside of class\, Gesher meets slightly less often than Beit Sefer. \nEach of our teen classes encourage students to explore Judaism\, while thinking critically about their own roles and responsibilities in the world.\nWe approach social justice as an important lifelong mitzvah and aim to build skills to make a difference in the world.

SUMMARY:Shiur B'internet
DESCRIPTION:We offer an alternative virtual class for those students who cannot attend Beit Sefer on Thursdays\, either due to driving distance or a major year-long conflict on Thursday afternoons. In addition to attending classes on Sundays\, these students will also participate in an online class on Monday evenings. \nRegistration is limited and permission from the Director of Lifelong Learning is required prior to registration. Shiur B’internet ensures that all Beth Emet Beit Sefer students engage in Hebrew learning twice a week.

SUMMARY:Chavayah
DESCRIPTION:Chavayah\, Hebrew for “experience” focuses on youth empowerment and offers a self-directed and engaging approach to Jewish learning for our 9th and 10th grade students. Chavayah equips young adults with the tools they need to continue the development of their Jewish identities through a diverse collection of learning opportunities. Chavayah features two components: Core Curriculum (monthly lessons on a common theme)\, and Chuggim (experience learning electives). \nCore Curriculum sessions focus on one social justice topic for each year\, giving students the tools to become more civically engaged. Past themes have included criminal justice\, climate justice\, immigration\, and racial justice. Chavayah students learn not only from synagogue educators but from talented community members across a broad spectrum of subjects such as social justice and Jewish creativity. The Chavayah experience gives students a stronger breadth of knowledge as well as a wider consciousness of how their Jewish values might inform other activities they enjoy. \nChuggim sessions encourage intrinsic motivation for Jewish learning and allows for creativity to thrive. With scheduling flexibility\, Chuggim curriculum experiences have ranged from Sephardic cooking classes\, seeing Steppenwolf plays\, and compiling a Passover Hagaddah. While all teens attend core curriculum sessions\, students choose the Chuggim that best matches their interests\, creating a class schedule that responds to their unique curiosities and empowers them to take their own educational liberties.

SUMMARY:Talmidim
DESCRIPTION:A talmidim is a student\, a budding scholar\, and this is what we encourage our 11th graders to be. \nRecognizing the advanced level of critical thinking skills that these students use in school and in viewing the world\, we offer an opportunity to apply these skills to the analysis of Jewish history and events happening in Israel and Palestine today. Talmidim is taught by Marci Dickman.
