Dear Parents,
Wow!  Can it be the end of the school year already? Today we had a ceremony. I gave each student a prize and a certificate that acknowledges one thing (of many) that he/she succeeded at during the school year.

-Summer work:

It is very important to help your student retain the Hebrew skills that he/she has achieved this year. I’m sending an enrichment workbook. I highly recommend that your child finish this workbook over the summer. I will give a small prize to whoever brings back the workbook completed at the beginning of next year.

-Siddur:

I’m sending home the Siddur that your child received at the Chag HaSiddur to use over the summer. Please make sure to return it to school with your child at the beginning of the new school year. They will use it every day next year as well.

-“Shabbat Shalom” workbook

This week we finished the Shabbat workbook. It is composed of 3 distinctive units which reflect the main ideas of the Shabbat theme: 
1. Bo'i Shabbat (Come, Shabbat) - Welcoming Shabbat in class and at home. 
2. Oneg Shabbat (Celebrating Shabbat) - What's permitted and what's forbidden during Shabbat. 
3. Shavua Tov (Good Week) - Farewell to Shabbat, Havdalah. 
These units deal, respectively, with the preparations for Shabbat, the Mitzvoth of Shabbat and the ritual of departure from the Shabbat on Motzaei Shabbat (Saturday night). 
The units include: Blessings over the candles, the challa and the Kiddush for Shabbat. 
The Shabbat Shalom unit is taught throughout the year and in parallel to Ariot and Shalom units, during the periods of the year when holiday topics are not taught.

-Jornal notbook:

I’m sending home the journal notebook call : "מחברת עברית"

In this מחברת  you’ll find all the daily work we wrote in it during the year.

-Cursive Hebrew workbook:

The students know 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. Please use this workbook to make sure your child is writing his/her letters correctly.

In the folder you can find a paper with the letters your child needs to work on.

-supplies :

I’m sending with the students the new folder and notebook that we didn’t use (if there were any left).

 I’m very proud of my first grade students’ achievements this year. Thank you as well. Your child’s achievements this year would not have been so successful without your help and support.

Have a wonderful summer.
