WONDER

Unified arts classes, including music, physical education, and visual art, support the development of the whole child by nurturing creativity, coordination, self-expression, and confidence from an early age. At Schechter, these experiences also strengthen social skills, teamwork, problem-solving, and emotional regulation, all while fostering a lifelong appreciation for movement, creativity, and the arts. Check out what Schechter students have been learning and doing!

Middle schoolers learned genetics by designing and creating their own puppets! Alim students (gr. 3-4) are discovering how energy is stored, released, and transferred—all through motion and play. Anafim (gr. 1-2) recently created, then tested, mini-volcanoes in preparation for building a large-scale class volcano later this year. Kindergarten (Ilanot) students had a hands-on introduction to basic physics concepts, proving that some of the best learning happens when ideas (and objects!) collide. Schechter’s K-8 science classes are brimming with excitement over project-based learning that makes lessons come alive. Read all about these topics, plus after school robotics and science, along with Sarah Montag’s discussion of how the parashah connects to STEAM learning!
