DALET (4th) Blog 22-23

Judaic Studies:

Today our focus was on the flag of Israel.  We discussed the choice of the two blue bands (ask your child what those represent) and then the use of the Magen David.  We know it is named for Israel’s King David–have your child tell you how he used it and then why it was adopted by the Israeli people as a symbol.  We then started creating our own interpretation of the Magen David using tessellation.  We will finish up our designs when we return to regular class schedule, the week after Purim.

Hebrew:Students took a break from Mitkadem and learning different words and phrases associated with the Purim, including the 4 mitzvot of Purim.
