ויקרא 3.31.2017

Dear Parents,
We are very busy getting ready for Passover.
This week, we continued learning about “Pesach” (Passover). We almost finished making our own interactive Haggadot .
 We have reviewed the entire order of the Seder night as written in the Haggadah. We learned the names of the ten plagues in Hebrew and English. We also learned that the four cups of wine we drink at the Seder stand for the four different languages for redemption.
Of course, there is still more to learn! We will be spending a lot of time over the next week learning all the laws and customs surrounding the Seder night and Pesach.

Ariot:
 Ariot thanks all of the first grade families for the wonderful time he spent at your house.
You are welcome to see the Ariot pictures with the kids at the achievement fair, as well as what the students wrote about their experience with Ariot.

 Hebrew workbook:
This week we finished our workbook which teaches about the vowel “Holam” (the “O” sound). We learned to spell words with all four of the vowels we have learned (“Ah”, “Ei” ,“O” and “Eh”).
We are now learning the last vowel: Shoorok & Koobots (oo sound).
This means that soon we will finish our reading program. Wow!  

Cursive Hebrew letters:
We almost finished to learn how to write cursive Hebrew letters. The students focused on forming the letters correctly and reading words written in cursive script. We learned that there are 5 letters that do not start from the top.

“My library” הַסִפְרִיָה שֶלִי "   
This week’s book is called:"גילה שואלת מה נשתנה" -“Gilah is asking “Ma Nishtanah””
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.

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.

Shabbat shalom from Morah Irit Karavani.
