Hagim (Holidays)
Last week we had an exciting time celebrating
Chanukah! We lit the Chanukiah
every day in our classroom. We said the B’racha and sang “Hanerot Halaloo”
every day.
I’m sending home our Tal-Am workbook for
Chanukah for you to keep. We also learned new songs and read Hebrew stories for
Chanukah. (The books are shown on the back of the festival workbook).
Hebrew workbook:
This week we finished our workbook which teaches
about the vowel “Hirik” (the long Ei sound). We learned to read and spell words
with two of the vowels we have learned (“Ah”and “Ei”).I’m sending it home for
you to keep and review.
“Ariot 1 workbook”:
We finished “Ariot 1” workbook.
It was very easy because we had already learned
so many of the vocabulary words and writing skills while doing our reading
program. “ Ariot 1” was so fun when we challenged ourselves to figure out the
words in the “Hactava” (the spelling test at the end of each unit)
and we were able to figure out the words without help. We can read all the
Hebrew in it! We were
practicing Ariot I CD-ROM on the smart board in our classroom and in the
computer lab which includes the same
stories and activities as in the workbook.
“My library” הַסִפְרִיָה
שֶלִי " ( Home work for this
week and for the vacation).
6 short stories from the Ariot workbook: “shalom ani Ariot”- p.11, “Shabbat shalom”- p.21, “Aba
Please encourage your child to read it aloud to
you over the winter break.It is a great way to practice all the vocabulary we
have learned in this unit.
Ariot:
This week Ariot is going with Morah Irit to Israel
Parashat Hashavua:
This Friday you will
find in your child’s folder a picture page with a summary of the story of Parashat “וחי”
– Vayechi. From our Parasha we learned how important is a tzadik’s blessing.
First Grade Album:
I still needs 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.
Shabbat Shalom
Morah Irit.
