Judaic Studies
Hi Gimel Families,
I hope everyone had fun, safe and restful break. The Gimel class had a great start back this past Sunday. Our class discussed Jewish American Heroes. We learned about people such as Harry Houdini, Steven Spielberg, and Albert Einstein - their lives and struggles as Jewish Americans and how they became inspirations for all. As we talked, the Gimel class defined what qualities we feel make up a hero and the hero qualities we possess…it was so fun! Being a hero is no fun unless you have a great Jewish hero name!! While I would love to tell you what our class hero names are – they will have to show you themselves at the Gimel Shabbat which will be on Friday, January 27th.
I look forward to seeing your children on the 22nd as we continue to explore how each of us can change the world by being our own Jewish superhero.
Please reach out if you have any questions.
Reminder – NO SCHOOL on January 15
Hebrew
Shalom Parents,
This past week we went over the letters Zayin, Gimel, Kuf, Tzadi and sister-letter Final Tsadi. We also learned new vocabulary associated with these letters. This concludes our Tiyulim book. Next, students will either be working on their reading speed and also beginning Mitkadem – our Self paced Hebrew program which focuses on Tefillot.
Shabbat Shalom
