== Sixth Graders have special sessions each week with the clergy. They rotate between leading the Torah service and practicing prayers from the Bimah and learning about the weekly Torah portion in order to understand how to give a D'var Torah. ==

== Sixth grade students continue learning Hebrew aurally and focus on learning the sixth grade prayer goals through small group prayer learning each Sunday morning. A schedule and list of 5th grade prayers can be found under Hebrew Resources. ==

== Sixth graders also learn on Tuesday afternoons where they focus on Jewish theology and the meaning of the prayers through chugim/electives and they have a chance to pray and share together. ==
