Girls’ School

Hosted at Bais Yaakov

At Binyan Yisroel, we recognize that every student learns differently. Our comprehensive, full-day program combines specialized, research-based instruction with individualized support to help each girl develop the academic skills, confidence, and independence she needs to succeed.

Our teachers work collaboratively to reinforce skills across subjects and create a consistent, supportive learning experience. Small-group instruction, ongoing assessment, and carefully selected teaching strategies allow us to meet students where they are while continually building toward greater independence.

Our students receive targeted instruction in all areas with lessons carefully designed to address their individual learning needs. As students progress through our program and develop the skills, confidence, and readiness for a traditional classroom setting, we support their transition back into their mainstream schools.

English Reading

We use structured, systematic, and multisensory approaches to strengthen foundational literacy skills, including phonemic awareness, decoding, fluency, spelling, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. Drawing from established programs and methodologies such as Wilson Reading System, Orton-Gillingham, and Lindamood-Bell, our teachers provide explicit instruction that builds skills step by step and helps students become more confident, capable readers.

Kriah

We place a strong emphasis on developing accurate, fluent Hebrew reading skills, recognizing the essential role kriah plays in a child’s Torah education. Through specialized approaches and resources such as Yesodos and KriahAbility, students receive targeted instruction and guided practice to strengthen letter recognition, decoding, accuracy, and fluency.

Limudei Kodesh

At Binyan, we provide a meaningful and engaging Limudei Kodesh education that nurtures each student’s connection to Torah and Yiddishkeit. Through individualized instruction and thoughtfully adapted teaching methods, students develop essential skills and understanding in Chumash, Dikduk, Yedios Klalios, Tefillah, and other areas of Torah learning. Our approach emphasizes comprehension, skill development, and active participation, helping each girl build confidence and develop a lasting love for Torah learning.

Language Arts

Our instruction focuses on strengthening receptive and expressive language, vocabulary, comprehension, written expression, and the ability to organize and communicate ideas. These essential skills support success across both Limudei Kodesh and general studies.

Mathematics

We teach mathematics through a hands-on, discovery-based approach that encourages students to think critically and develop a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts. Our teachers introduce meaningful problems, model effective strategies, and provide concrete materials and visual tools to support learning. With thoughtful guidance, students explore different ways to solve problems, make connections, and construct their own understanding. This approach builds strong mathematical foundations while developing problem-solving skills, independence, and confidence.

Community Support

Binyan works with local Baltimore schools as well as other communities to support children with language-based learning differences. We also help families connect with specialized educators.
