Chalutzim – About

Chalutzim is for children in 1st grade through sixth grade (ages 6-10) and is based on the principles of language development and learning patterns. The program is based on the idea that the best learning environment for children is when knowledge is acquired through a variety of activities, using each of the four characteristics of language. Through reading, writing, listening, and speaking, students develop literacy in Hebrew, the language of the Jewish people’s heritage.

We teach:

• Hebrew language immersion (multiple tracks based on age group and ability)
• Israeli culture, folklore, music, art, stories, drama, life skills and more
• Jewish values and holidays through an Israeli perspective
• Authentic Israeli content, building a shared cultural identity with Israeli peers

We inspire:

• Love of Israel and its culture
• Positive Jewish identity and pride in Israeli heritage
• Hebrew fluency and a strong connection to Israel through Hebrew language
• A vibrant and diverse community founded on Jewish and Israeli values
• Life-long learners, motivated by passion and creativity
