Hebrew Through Movement

Hi Parents,
This past Sunday I introduced the words katan, small, and gadol, big, using some shofars that I happened to have. Your smart kids got the drift right away!
Happy and Healthy New Year to you and your families!

Hebrew through Movement

Hi Parents,
As part of your children's schedule, I will be in their classroom each week for 15 minutes, giving them an age-appropriate taste of conversational Hebrew that is taught by demonstrating actions and naming them,  and then having the children follow Hebrew commands, in ways both serious and silly.
This  class has a combination of new and experienced Hebrew learners, but I found that they are eager to participate and, at this age, very quick to learn.  I look forward to working with them throughout the year!
L'Shalom,
Morah Emily

Dear Parents,

Our field trip to the Warwick Theater was was so much fun!

The children and parents enjoyed the movie The Prince of Egypt!  In a non threatening way the story of Passover was told!  After the movie, Spencer engaged everyone in singing Passover songs!

We are on vacation for the next two Sundays!  Our next class is May 1, 2016!

Have a wonderful Passover!

Shalom,

Morah Cindy

Dear Parents,

What fun our class had making hamantaschen in cooking.  Each child rolled the dough, made the three corner shape and filled dough with their choice of filling.  Next the pastry was baked to take home.

Jacob's story will have to wait until next week when Rabbi returns.

In Technology, the children are working on a special video.  All the students are having fun exploring the iPad.

Save the date March 20, 2016 for our Family Education program!  All are encouraged to come in costume!

Don't forget to change your clock forward for next week.  It is Pajama Day to make it easier to get to Religious school on time!!

Have a great week!

Shalom,

Morah Cindy

Dear Parents,

Our class loved Yoga with Morah Stacy!  Yoga has a pose for everything in the world - tree, dog etc.. Yoga makes one feel great and the children were feeling great!

Rabbi Meyer continued  the story of Jacob.  Jacob was blessed by a stranger in the night and given the new name Israel.  To be continued...

Morah Jill introduced our class to the iPad!  Through a drawing app, each child drew a picture of their own design.  Our class is working on a special project with the iPad to be revealed at Family Ed on March 20.  Please mark your calendar for this very special program! Each child must bring at least one parent and be in costume!!  More information to follow!

Hope you have a good week!

Shalom,

Morah Cindy
