We are off to a great start! Students and staff are engaged every session from beginning to end! We are all looking forward a wonderful year.
Read below for news from the classrooms.
PreK/Kindergarten:
PreK/K enjoyed learning all about the High Holidays in September. We had fun making crafts such as a whale painting for the story of Jonah and an very delicious edible sukkah.
1st Grade:
Mrs. Lisa-
1st grade HebrewSaurs
Our busy first month was a success, learning about holidays, reciting prayers, reading bible stories, singing songs, and even creating dances. We created Torahs and flags, ate in a Sukkah, told apology stories, counted in Hebrew, gave Tzedakah in many ways, and much more. We are looking forward to learning Hebrew letters and more history in the coming months.
2nd/3rd Grade:
Miss
Risa
's 2nd/3rd grade class has been learning about the days of creation. The children were split into three groups and each group drew scenes of the 6 days. The third group drew the first Shabbat table. We also learned about what it takes to make Sukkah, why we celebrate Sukkot and a small but tiny Sukkah was built in our classroom. The kids decorated it themselves and had a great time.
4th Grade: Mrs. Michelle-
We are of to a fantastic year! We are working on a storybook about a super hero called Mitzvah Man who goes around performing every day mitzvot. We are also starting at the beginning and creating a giant "torah scroll" to wrap around our room. We made candy sukkot, played fun games, and started our Hebrew curriculum.
5th Grade:
The 5th grade learned about the rules for building a sukkah. We learned about the minimum width and height. We learned about what can be used for the scakh (sukkah covering) and where you can build a sukkah. In class we built a sukkah out of cardboard to meet the minimum size required, one barely big enough for the students to sit in.
6th Grad
e:
The Sixth Graders have been getting to study some of their new materials in conjunction with the High Holidays, such as th
e prophets we read from in our Haftorah readings. We have also followed our ancestors out of Israel and into Babylonia.
