"Chay Club"

Chai Club

Dear Parents,

I am very excited because we are starting a new program/project for the first grade called “Chai Club”! You ask: What is “Chai Club”?  When you add up the letters for the word “חי” – (chai in Hebrew) it equals the number 18. I will be giving to each student a Hebrew book to practice reading at home. Once your student is finished reading the book to an adult, he should bring the book back to school with a signature from the parent and your child will get a new book to read.  What does this have to do with the word “chai?”  A student who reads 18 books will join the “Chai Club” and will receive a certificate and a special prize!  This program will help create excitement about Hebrew reading and help improve their Hebrew reading skills. It will also give each student a real love for Hebrew reading when they see how well they read.

The first book is called: “Boker tov Bina Ve Dov” (Good morning Bina and Dov).

Please encourage your child to read it aloud to you over the weekend so they can receive a new one on Monday.

With your help and support we can make a real difference in your child’s Hebrew reading skills!

Shabbat Shalom

Morah Irit.
