Yavneh Academy Celebrates Shavua Ivrit

Yavneh Academy celebrated Shavua Ivrit, Hebrew Week, and focused on learning and developing the Hebrew language. During the lessons, students explored the life and work of Eliezer Ben-Yehuda, the reviver of the Hebrew language, and learned about his immense contribution to restoring Hebrew as a spoken language. Inspired by his efforts, a personal dictionary was created in classes with new words that the students invented, much like how Ben-Yehuda coined and integrated new words into the evolving language. Additionally, students enjoyed a festive celebration at the end of the week, where they honored the Hebrew language through games, songs, and creative activities.
