Tefillah (prayer) is an integral part of your children’s lives at Beit Rabban Day School, with our tefillah curriculum divided between time spent in worship, instruction in siddur skills, and opportunities to reflect on the role of prayer and transcendence in the lives of our students and the Jewish People. In Shorashim, as students learn to read Hebrew, they also make a transition from the siddurim they have created or experienced in the Gan and Garinim to the received text of our community.
In celebration of this milestone, we invite you to the Siddur Celebration on
Thursday, January 16, from
8:30-9:45am
East Campus, Social Hall (2nd Floor)
Parents, Grandparents and Caregivers welcome
During this program we will sing tefillot together and students will have an opportunity to share their learning and thoughts with you. We will also give students the gift of a siddur that they will use for tefillot in school and can continue to use into their adult years.
On Thursday, January 2 your children will be bringing home a blank bookplate.
Please inscribe this bookplate to your child and return it to school by Thursday, January 9
, so that it can be affixed to your child’s siddur before the celebration.
We have attached two samples to spark your creativity.
Finally, the siddur that your child receives will be the siddur that they use in school. If you would like to purchase the identical siddur for your child to use at home, it is available
through
Koren Publishers
and at local Jewish bookstores.
We look forward to seeing you at the Siddur Celebration!
