- Horaa Mutemet | Theodoro Hertzl
Conoce mas a fondo el modelo pedagógico del colegio Theodoro Hertzl About us > Horaa Mutemet Horaa Mutemet Differentiated instruction Horaá Mutemet (education for diversity) is the name of the Israeli pedagogic model that allows children to develop their abilities through games, and showing respect for their learning styles and paces. This educational model works in line with the idea of diversity, and precisely for that reason, recognizes different learning styles and paces. With this model as our foundation, we are aware that meaningful learning is connected with previous experiences, the ones that excite us and pass the test of time, because they are based on the development of higher order thinking skills and on the student’s ability to guide their own learning. Since we have the responsibility of educating new generations, and addressing the educational demands of a globalized and shifting world to experience it fully and successfully, Colegio Theodoro Hertzl has taken its pedagogy from Israel, a multicultural country that has developed an educational model that can successfully embrace students from all over the world. Through Game-based learning, multiple intelligences, the development of competences, educational technology, virtual education and the principles of early stage education, differentiated instruction presents entry pathways to knowledge , and develops in students autonomy, decision making skills, motivation towards learning, teamwork, and remains mindful of the diverse learning styles and paces. Every year, our faculty receive training and update their knowledge on the model, with international experts on this pedagogy, which features the following main characteristics: Student-centered Learning expectations are more effective when the are entertaining, pertinent and interesting. The teacher creates situations that are challenging for all the students, which allows them to reach knowledge through different pathways. It is frequently believed that differentiation is simply giving some students more work than others. Horaá Mutemet seeks to adjust the nature of the assigned work, to cater to the learning needs of the students. More qualitative than quantitative Proactive The teacher is aware of what students have special needs, and plans a variety of ways to approach and demonstrate learning. Organic Teachers and students learn together.

- Our Programs | Theodoro Hertzl
> Our programs PRESCHOOL ELEMENTARY MIDDLE & HIGH SCHOOL Since our school adopted the pedagogical approach of Horaá Mutemet, which means, education for diversity. We have started to implement the strategy of Play-work in our preschool section, which allows our kids to learn while they play, and to boost their skills in situations that are significantly connected to their life experiences. Besides, children practice communication, teamwork and the value of coexisting. Based on these tenets, we seek to strengthen exploration, inquiry, curiosity and observation; in this way, we show respect for their learning styles and paces, enhancing their inquisitive spirit, which is really necessary nowadays, and surely in the future. Another one of the tools we have been working on is Project-Based learning, which perfectly fits the proposal of Horaá Mutemet, and which has allowed us to realize that using it, our children build their learning in a more active manner, with the support of their teachers, who are being trained to do so. The focus on Project-Based learning values the natural curiosity of children, and addresses their need to explore, investigate and inquire about their surroundings. In connection with the previous idea, we deem it really important to teach English as a Second Language. Through this, we hope to boost the communicative skills of our children through an approach to the language that feels as natural as possible, immersed in the projects, in our play-work moments, which allows us to see how they start acquiring the language without pressure or fear of making mistakes. The school has also started discovering the artistic skills of our children. It is then important to develop such skills, starting with music and body expression (Dance and drama), allowing us to boost, from the corporal and aesthetic, the dimensions of sense-perception, proprioception, dissociation, among others. From the corporal dimension, we place great importance on gross motor skills through Physical education; through it we are working on their coordination, compliance with instructions, laterality, etc. Since our school is a part of the Jewish community of Medellín, we also make our students acquainted with Jewish culture through Judaic studies, in which we learn and share valuable elements from Judaism. Our students are raised as beings that can interiorize the necessary habits and routines for the preschool stage. They learn to respect differences and practice the values they learn at home and at school in their everyday life. The dimensions we work on in the preschool stage, are based on the guidelines provided by the national Ministry of Education for Early education, which allow us to work in synchrony with the objectives pursued by Colombian education, in the context of skills for life.

Besides the use of Horaá Mutemet, within all the teaching processes, we have the active and constant participation of the psychologist, the anti-bullying program “United within difference”, and the section coordinator. We make emphasis on the values and teachings of our Rabbi and our Jewish culture teachers. The learning process and everyday activities are led by the faculty and the homeroom teachers. Having teachers that are building knowledge, and having diversity of beliefs and creeds (Our students can choose courses of Jewish, Catholic or Christian religion, or human development), creates the possibility to foster respect for difference, and achieve a well-rounded development and an open mind to what is new and different. Ours is a bilingual program, and we have also added the Hebrew language. This opens the possibility for our students to have a broader cultural and social vision of the world. Additionally, the teachers develop different platforms that enable integration, local and global interconnectedness. We are educating world leaders, capable of assuming leadership with integrity and respect, to face the demands of society. As our students finish elementary school, they face standardized English tests to measure their proficiency and progress.

The word “Autonomy” (an expression derived from the Greek language) could be roughly translated as “he who knows norm”. Inspired by this definition, we attempt to arouse awareness among our students on the importance of duty and delegated situations. By responsibility we understand a quality that drives people to comply with their duties and face the consequences of their actions. As our youngsters grow in this process, they learn tools of critical thinking and argumentation about what they have observed. A Theodoro Hertzl student is educated as a sensitive being towards others, and capable of service for their peers in a humane way; achieves a sense of belonging for the institution, and understands the importance of showing respect for this space. The academic designs created by the different areas are based on the guidelines provided by the national Ministry of Education, and bear in mind the Israeli approach Horaá Mutemet, which seeks to raise awareness about the importance of having diverse classrooms in which the learning paces of students are taken into account, and in which teachers employ different ways to pursue a purpose, ensuring the inclusion of all when transferring knowledge. All through middle school and high school, our students receive preparation for the SABER 11° national standardized tests. Three years ago we started promoting amongst our teachers the spirit of a teacher/researcher, which provides training and paves the way for project-based work. This becomes an assessment tool and a strategy that allows students to inquire (using research methods) about different objects of knowledge, and to stay in touch with them through experience. We are also implementing a program of Field Trips abroad, seeking to strengthen our students’ acquisition of English as a foreign language. We have a trip to Canada with students from 7th grade, and a trip to Europe and Israel with our 11th grade students.

- Our Projects | Theodoro Hertzl
> Our Projects INSTITUTIONAL PROJECTS United within Difference United within Difference is one of our banner projects, which seeks to strengthen positive relations amongst students and to create strategies to prevent situations of bullying from happening. It has been the laboratory in which young students can experience insight to transform behaviors. This project emerged from a reflection about the painful experience of the Holocaust, and paying homage to the life of Anne Frank, a young girl whose life ended because of anti-semitism. This project has had a meaningful impact on students of this school and others. In 2012, this project won second place in Colombia in the XVIII Premio Santillana. The Happier School Program Interdisciplinary educational program whose purpose seeks to help the entire school community achieve higher levels of happiness. In today's world, students need to learn more than reading, writing and arithmetic. No less important is that they learn to find a sense of purpose, take care of their physical well-being, learn to grow from failure and adversity, foster healthy relationships, as well as deal with painful emotions and cultivate pleasurable ones. These skills and abilities will contribute to the overall psychological well-being of students, making them happier and playing a preventive role, decreasing the likelihood of mental health problems both in the present and in the future. Additionally, students will perform better academically and, later, professionally. Math's Contest The Emmy Amalie Noether math competition emerged from the idea of instituting some math olympics in a more familiar setting. Its intention has been proposing exercises for students from 4th to 12th grades, grouped by levels. This contest has also had the presence of students from other institutions Family day Family day - Iom Tzedaká (a day of social justice to help others.): This is an annual event in which all of our families are gathered for a full day of activities that aim at strengthening the relations within the educational community.

Additionally, manages and advises on international projects (trips, international university fairs, partnerships, among others). JEWISH AREA Our calendar and school life are guided by the principles of Jewish culture, which offer a broad look at the world. This includes the celebration of festivities, knowledge of values and practices like debate, analysis or inquiry. These elements have been fundamental aspects of Judaism for over two thousand years, and added to them, we also use a variety of artistic expressions, seen from local and global perspectives. Tu Bishvat Tu Bishvat: This festivity is known as the New year of trees. We eat fruit, plant trees and reflect on our relationship with nature and how we need to protect it. Purim Purim: A woman called Ester is the main protagonist of this festivity, in which the Jewish community commemorates the salvation from the slaughter that their community were being subjected to under the rule of king Ajashverosh. It is a day of parades, costumes, joy, performances by the students, contests, food, presents to friends and to those in need. Pesaj Pésaj: A day of remembrance. A commemoration of the moment the Jewish people escaped from Egypt with the guidance of Moses. Some typical foods of this celebration are the matzá, grape juice, eaten in a seder (a meal with a specific order) in which we speak about freedom, we sing songs and read important texts from scripture. Iom Hashoa The students of sixth grade, and the ones from middle and high school, take part in a solemn act in which 6 torches are lit up to honor the memory of six million people (Jewish and people of other creeds) who died during the holocaust. As part of this commemoration, we read meaningful texts, testimonies and reflections on the importance of respect for difference. Yom Hazikaron The students of sixth grade, and the ones from middle and high school, take part in an act in which we pay homage to more than 23.800 soldiers who have fallen in wars in Israel, and to more than 3.000 victims of terrorism.

(a wise man remembered on this occasion) Shavuot We commemorate the Torá and the weeks since Pésaj with a special breakfast based on dairy products, which reminds us of the abundance in the land of Israel and our own rural areas. Rosh Hashana On this date we celebrate the creation of the world and the years since. We analyze the actions of the previous year, we ask for forgiveness from those we have wronged. We eat a seder (a meal in a specific order) with foods that symbolize abundance, leadership and well-being. Yom Kippur In the days before this solemn occasion, in which we do not attend school, we remember the importance of our actions, the importance of tzedaká (giving to others), repentment and the possibility to renew ourselves. Kristallnacht On 9th november, 1938, many stores, homes, synagogues and gathering places of the Jewish community were attacked in Europe.Since that day, the persecution intensified and the Holocaust took shape. That dark night is remembered with a tribute to books, in which our students present handcrafted books of their creation. Hanukkah In the Jewish culture classes, the teachers discuss with students the bravery of a few to defend their beliefs and traditions. This festivity may be held at our school, depending on the date in which it occurs every year.

In accordance with article 142 of Law 115 of 1994, and the articles 19 through 25 of decree number 1860 of 1994, it facilitates participation and democracy in the environment of a school. Let's Be Leaders This is an activity in which preschool children, with the guidance of their teachers and teacher assistants, get in touch with the possibility of electing a school government.
