חופשת חורף

Dear parents,

This week we had an exciting time celebrating the last days of Chanukah! We lit the Chanukiah in our classroom. We said the B’racha and sang “Hanerot Halaloo” every day.

Yesterday we got to put jelly in our own “Sufganiya”. Yummy!!!

We also learned new songs and read Hebrew stories for Chanukah.

We finished two workbooks for Chanukah.  I’m sending home our workbooks for you to keep. Please go over the two workbooks and encourage your child to tell you what we have learned!

 “My library” הַסִפְרִיָה שֶלִי "

This week’s story is called: "בִּינָה וְהַסֻפְגָנִיָה"- Bina and the jelly donuts.

 Please encourage your child to read it aloud to you over the vacation.

Ariot:

Ariot is going with Morah Irit.

First Grade Album:

We are working on a special album that includes all the subjects we are learning in “Tal-Am”. Please send to school (soon is better  - the latest time is after winter break).

two of the following pictures (4”x6”)

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).

These pictures are very important for our learning in the class!

You can Email me the picture and I will print it.

Coming after winter break:

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

We also will start to learn Hebrew script letters. Wow!!!

Vocabulary word:

No word list for the week of Jan 3^rd.

I will send a new word list on Friday Jan 5^th.

Parashat Hashavua:

This Friday you will find in your child’s folder a picture page with a summary of the story of Parashat: “ויגש” – Vayigash. From our Parasha we have learned how important it is to be responsible for our siblings and for our family.

I wish you all חופשה נעימה – Chofsha Ne’ima (Have a nice vacation).
