פרשת ויקהל פקודי


Dear Parents,
This week, we started learning about “Pesach” (Passover). We have starting making our own Haggadadot. Each of us will bring one home before Pesach.

Cursive Hebrew letters:
We finished learning how to write all the cursive Hebrew letters. The students have been focusing on forming the letters correctly and reading words written in cursive script. This week, we will review all the letters. Now it is required for all students to write only in cursive! Please make sure your child is writing his/her letters correctly.

Homework:
The students are ready to write their homework in cursive. I know that for some students this transition will be hard so please courage your child to form the cursive Hebrew letters correctly. Please use the example of the script Hebrew letters that are posting on the inside of the homework notebook cover.

- The children are still having trouble getting their homework notebook back to school on time. Please make sure the homework notebook is placed back into your child’s backpack. It is extremely important to have it in class on time. Otherwise, I can’t post their homework.


Shalom Babayit Uavchutz (Shalom at Home and Outdoors)
This week we focused on the Hebrew words for different the clothing we wear. We also focused on how we thank Hashem for giving us our clothing every day by saying in our morning prayers the blessing: “" מלביש ערומים. We labeled our self with notes on our body naming what we were wearing to learn what each part of our clothing is in Hebrew. Next week we will learn Hebrew words for foods.

“My library” הַסִפְרִיָה שֶלִי "   
This week’s book is called:"אופס" -“Oops”
Please encourage your child to read it aloud to you over the weekend .It is a great way to practice all the vocabulary we have learned.

Ariot:
This week Ariot is going to Bina’s home.

Parashat Hashavua:
This Friday you will find in your child’s folder a picture page with a summary of the story of Parashat : "ויקהל פקודי" We reviewed all the various vessels that are in the Mishkan and we learned that Bezalel was the one appointed by Hashem to build the Mishkan. We also learned that Moshe first warned them to keep the Shabbat before giving them the commandment to build the Mishkan. This told the Jewish People that even though the building of the Mishkan was important the still must rest on Shabbat are recognize that Hashem created the world.

Our Hebrew vocabulary words for this week come from our unit on food “Shalom 2” workbook:
Milk חָלָב-
