Hello Aleph families!
This week we learned about Tzedakah.
I loved how the students made a connection between Tzedakah and mitzvot!!
We explained that Tzedakah means charity and that we collect coins every week to help with people less fortunate. We learned that it is Jewish tradition to put a few coins in a Tzedakah box before lighting Shabbat candles on Friday night. Some of the students shared what types of Tzedakah they do!
I was so proud of the students!
We watched a video -Get with the Giving/ Gabi and Rafi Talk about Tzedakah . The students really enjoyed that!
Parker taught the students the letter Tsade. We gave the students a mini quiz to see how many letters they remembered.
Finally, we painted our own Tzedakah boxes. Som E students brought them home this week, while others decided to let them dry in the classroom. They can take them home next week.
Please send your child in with a water bottle. They get very thirsty with our salty snacks. Thanks!!
