Join us at our Pod After School!
Our Pod After School offers a unique alternative to โTsaharon.โ Held from Sunday to Thursday until 17:00 hrs, our program takes place in a private apartment with yard in the Yehuda Maccabi neighborhood. Designed for 1st to 4th graders, we emphasize project-based learning, integrating literacy, math, sciences, and art through various projects led by the children.
The program is ran by me, Catalina Wigdorsky, an experienced teacher in homeschool programs and educational centers in Israel.
Due to some families relocating abroad (because of the war), we have a few open spots. Contact me for more information!

Literacy in the early years!
โ๏ธ The process of learning how to read and write does not only involve "decoding" letters. The focus of literacy learning is to understand the importance of developing reading, writing, and oral skills to be able to receive and send a clear message.
๐กWhy is literacy development important in the early years?
Early literacy is important because it helps children develop a love of reading and writing, which will be the key to understanding the world, expressing their ideas, and studying the areas of their interest.
๐กHow can we develop literacy in the early years?
Reading stories and giving them opportunities to read by themselves by looking at the pictures and manipulating books to increase awareness of books and print.
Playing and hearing the sounds of the letters to develop phonological awareness.
Asking questions about the stories to encourage reading comprehension.
Giving them opportunities to create messages by writing letters with signs, drawings, and letters.

Kids love sciences! ๐ฉ๐ฝโ๐ฌ๐จ๐พโ๐ฌ
โ๏ธScience is not only in laboratories, complicated formulas, or books. The act of questioning the world ๐ around us in everyday experiences and finding or determining answers to these questions is Scientific Literacy.
๐กWhy is it important to encourage scientific literacy in kids?
As human beings, we are responsible for the environment and the future of the planet, therefore, we have "the right and duty to possess a scientific
training that allows them to act as autonomous, critical, and responsible
citizens" (Adรบriz, 2011, p. 19).
๐กHow can we encourage Scientific literacy in kids?
Being in contact with nature, asking them open-ended questions, finding the answers together through experiments, exploring, making hypotheses, and checking them.
Come to explore the world and do science with us!

Human Body project โญ๏ธ
โ๏ธKids are curious by nature. They are always trying to understand the world around them by asking and exploring.
โ๏ธWe can encourage their curiosity by asking them open-ended questions and working together to find the answers.
โ๏ธItโs important to ask their thoughts so we can verify them by doing experiments, looking in books and encyclopedias, doing experiments, and most importantly, playing!๐

Project-Based Activities๐ฉโ๐ซ
โ๏ธIn these kinds of activities, the knowledge comes from the childrenโs interests.
โ๏ธWe create something together based on their plays, ideas, preferences, questions, and needs.
โ๏ธLearning is more meaningful through real-life situations. In these situations, children have the need and interest to do something, so learning comes naturally.
โญ๏ธ First, we observe the children. What do they like to play? How do they play?
โญ๏ธ We identify the interest that is emerging through play.
โญ๏ธ We propose a project and work on the topic of interest in a holistic way.
๐ก During the process, we can combine literacy, math, art, science, social-emotional skills, and more. Children learn from the need to use those skills in projects that are proposed by them.
๐โLearning is created by everyone.โ
