Ivrit Update – Animal Vocabulary Unit

All groups follow the same vocabulary topic every two weeks, with variations and differentiation of how much and how fluently each group learns. We have included the vocabulary list for the next two weeks below for your curiosity. We do not expect students to practice this vocabulary at home, this is simply to keep you in the loop and share the learning.

Below, you can find a short summary of what each group may be focusing on during this two week learning block.
