Wednesday
Hey
In preparation for Pesach, students worked in pairs and quizzed each other on flashcards containing the Hebrew words of the Ma Nishtanah-The Four Questions. Once they mastered the flashcards, they practiced reading the questions in Hebrew. They also strengthened their Hebrew reading skills by reading aloud Hebrew word flashcards and emphasizing a few vowels that they still need to reinforce.
Vav
Vav students continued practicing reading the Ashrei. Two students chanted the leader lines for about half of the prayer. In preparation for Pesach, they reviewed prayers and songs in the Haggadah. They sang the song for the order of the seder and read the Hebrew lines for the Dayenu song. They also spent some time reading Hebrew word flashcards from prayers to maintain and sharpen their Hebrew reading skills.
Experiential Education -
We had another great week in Experiential Education!
This week we started to learn about Passover. First, students discussed what they knew about Passover before watching a short video about our next major holiday. After, students used our buzzer system to play Passover trivia.
