Dear Parents,
We have been very busy learning this week! Here are some of the things we have accomplished:
Prayer:
We have been using the Artscroll Siddur during our daily Tefillah service. While singing the Tefillot, the children follow the words in their siddurim. This helps them become familiar with the words of the prayers.
Parashat Hashavua-Parashat Ki Tavo
This Friday you will find in your child’s folder a Parasha sheet with pictures and a summary of what is in the Parasha. Please look inside each picture for the words your child wrote in the box. The first graders learned about the Mitzvah of “Bikurim”. “ביכורים”. We fulfill this Mitzvah by bringing the first fruits that our crops produce to the Kohein in the Bait Hamikdash. There, we said special verses from the Torah to praise Hashem for the all the bounty He has provided us . We also learned about the “curses “ and “blessings” that Hashem will give us. Wonderful blessings will come when we observe the Torah but if we do not observe the Torah, the Jews will receive curses.
This week we reviewed the Aleph-Bet letter names with their sounds as well as the “AH” vowel sound up to the letter “Zayin”.
We also learned that the letter “ו”added to a word means “and”. Please ask your child to explain this to you.
We continued working on our unit on Rosh Hashana. The students completed a project during Hebrew class and I will send it home B”H next week along with our Rosh Hashana workbook.
Shabbat Shalom,
Morah Irit.
