“My library” הַסִפְרִיָה שֶלִי "
This week’s book is called:"לִכְבוֹד פּוּרִים מִי בַּכִּיתָה?"- Lichvod Purim Mi Bakitah- (Who is in the classroom for
Purim?)
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 and will learn.
Cursive Hebrew letters:
We are continuing to learn how to
write cursive Hebrew letters. The students focused on forming the letters
correctly and reading words written in cursive script. This week, we reviewed
the letters up to “ע”. We learned that there are 5 letters that do not start from
the top as “ט”
and ל.
Homework:
First grader are learning their
vocabulary words very well.
There will be two days of homework
instead of three days.
Therefore, the vocabulary test will
be on Wednesday instead of Thursday.
Parashat Hashavua:
This Friday you will find in your
child’s folder a picture page with a summary of the story of Parashat :ויקרא"”.
We learned that the Jews brought korbanot because the process of bringing a
korban helped them become close to hashem.
This Shabbat
called Shabbat Zachor ("Sabbath [of] remembrance שבת זכור) it is the Shabbat before Purim , the holiday
on which we celebrate the foiling of Haman the
Amalekite's (There is a
tradition from the Talmud that Haman, the antagonist of the Purim story, was a
descendant of Amalek) plot to destroy the Jewish people. The
weekly Torahreading is supplemented with the Zachor ("Remember!")
reading in which we are commanded to remember the evil of Amalek.
When the Israelites left
Egypt, no nation dared pick a fight with them. Who would start up with a people
whose G‑d just
smacked around the mighty Egypt with ten awesome plagues, and drowned the
surviving few in the sea? Only Amalek, driven by profound hatred which defied
logic, came to wage battle.
Vocabulary words:
This is our word list.
The test will be on Wednesday 3/23/16.
