Gemara - Iyun
Talmud in-depth
In the Gemara Iyun shiur, the Rebbi will engage the students in actively exploring the Gemara’s reasoning, focusing on the commentaries of Rashi and the Tosafos. Together, the Rebbi and students will carefully and methodically analyze the give-and-take of the Gemara. Through this interactive process, the Rebbi will guide the students in developing robust textual and analytical skill sets, which will ultimately enable them to experience the fulfillment of independent in-depth Gemara study.

Math
Students will develop mathematical understanding and learn to justify the reasoning and derivation of mathematical statements and rules. They will analyze problems and identify entry points to their solutions; represent the problem symbolically; construct viable arguments and justify their conclusions; and apply the mathematics they know to solving problems in everyday life, society, and the workplace.
