1 - This week we learned about Lag B’omer.
We read a book called “Sadie’s Lag B’omer Mystery”.
We learned that Lag B’omer is the holiday we celebrate between Passover and Shavuot.
It is the 33rd day of the counting of the Omer.
We completed a word search with Lag B’omer words and made a bonfire out of fun treats!
Lag B’omer is celebrated with bonfires, picnics and fun!

Hi families,
After we finished school and class photos, the students and I continued learning about Israel this week. I was so pleased to hear that a few of them even took time during the week to research and learn more about the Dead Sea! We learned about the ways people in Israel live that are similar and different from the way we live here. This included talking about Kibbutzim and Moshavim and listening to the book, Chicken Man, to deepen their understanding. Ask them what job they’d like to have if they lived on a Kibbutz!
It’s hard to believe we only have one more day of Hebrew School. Everyone has been working really hard to keep their Siddurim open to the correct page and participate during morning Tefilah as well as listen and participate in class. As a result, they’ve once again filled their pompom jar. To celebrate their accomplishment, to mark the end of the year, and to celebrate Shavuot (because I have to throw learning into the prize) we will be making our own pizza, having ice cream, and wearing PJs on 5/21. If you have any concerns or questions about this, please let me know.
Have a great week!
Morah Jen, Hannah, and Parker
