Dear parents,
Last week we started a new program for the first grade called “My library” הַסִפְרִיָה שֶלִי "  and it is a big “הצלחה” (success).
If you want to read all about it, go to:

“My library” הַסִפְרִיָה שֶלִי " - ”!
This week’s book is called: “Shachar Bakita?” (שחר בכיתה?).
Please encourage your child to read it aloud to you over the weekend so they can receive a new one on Friday.
Don’t forget to remind your child that he\she will get a “Dag”  (our reward fish) when he\she is returns the book with a signature.

Ariot:
This week Ariot went to Ephraim’s home.

Hebrew workbook:
This week we finished our workbook “Mai’ot leot” Part 4!  We reviewed the Aleph-Bet letter names with their sounds and the vowel sound “AH” up to the letter Tav. We also focused on: “Shin” and “sin”. We practiced writing words and placing the dot on the right place. (Shin- on the right Sin-on the left). I’m sending it home for you to keep and review.
We will start a new Hoveret (workbook) with the vowel “Hirik” which sounds like a long E. We will learn to spell words with both vowels we have learned (Ah and Ei).

Parashat Hashavua
This Friday you will find in their folder a picture page with a summary of the story of Parashat:  “ וירא” (Va yerah). We learned about two important Mitzvot that our Parasha teaches us: Hachnasat Orchim and Bikur Cholim. We also learned about other stories from the beginning of the Parasha. Please encourage your child to tell you the stories he/she learned about this Parasha using the pictures on the sheets.

Prayer
We are doing very well reading and singing following new prayers: “Baruch Shamar”, “Ashrey” and “Anim zemirot”

Shabbat Shalom
Morah Irit.
