Dear Parents, 

This week we built our own Jewish snow man – אִיש שֶלֶג יְהוּדִי 

We started the month of  “Shevat” with  great new learning:  

We started “Ariot 2 workbook” and “Ariot 2 CD”:

We started “Ariot 2” workbook, and Ariot 2 program on the computers.                      

 Even though “Ariot 2” is more challenging,  it is even more fun to figure out the words in the  “Hachtava” (the spelling test at the end of each unit) and we are still able to figure out the words without help.

Coming soon:

-Next week (1.22.16) we will start a weekly Hebrew homework and vocabulary test. (Please sign the letter).

-We will start a new unit on home & family (this is why the students need pictures of their home and family!)

-This month we also will start to learn Hebrew script letters. Wow!!!

Hebrew workbook:

This week we almost finished our workbook which teaches about the vowel “Hirik” (the Ei sound). We learned to spell words with all three of the vowels we have learned (“Ah”, “Eh” and “Ei”).

“My library” הַסִפְרִיָה שֶלִי "   

אֵיזֶה יוּפִי! קַר! – How wonderful! It is cold!

This story is a very important story for practicing all the body parts.

Please find out in the story why it is so wonderful that it is cold.

Ariot:

This week Ariot is going to Talia’s home.

Tu Bishvat

We are going to start to learn the Tal-Am unit for Tu-Bishvat. 

”My family” and “My house” unit:

We are supposed to start learning about our family and about our house in Hebrew. I asked a few weeks ago that you should send two pictures about your family.

1. A picture of the outside of your child’s house.

2. A picture of your child’s family (a group picture of as many members of the family as possible).

Unfortunately, I’ve received pictures only from a few of the class and therefore I will have to push off teaching this unit for another two weeks. If you haven’t sent your pictures yet or you have sent only one of the pictures, please send your pictures this week!

At the end of this unit, the pictures will be posted in your child’s album. For your convenience you can Email me the pictures and I will print it for you! (My Email is: iritkaravani@hotmail.com)

Parashat Hashavua                                                                                                      

   This Friday you will find a picture page in the folder with a summary of the story of Parashat: “בא” (Bo). We reviewed the 10 makot (the Ten Plagues) names in English and in Hebrew.

We learn that “בא” in gematria is 3 and in our Parasha we have the last 3 Makot (plagues).
