February 6 & 7
Hebrew -
Last week: The Gimel students reinforced their Hebrew reading skills with the letter Sin. They read Hebrew aloud as a class and then took turns reading aloud individually to the teacher and madrichim, while completing a writing sheet where they wrote out the Shema! Writing the letters helps reinforce their familiarity with letters and is preparing them for the Mitkadem program, which they will begin next year.
The Dalet, Hey, and Vav students completed different activities, depending on their Hebrew reading skills. Some students continued to learn how to read Hebrew, while focusing on the Pey and Tzadi letters. Other students worked on reading and reciting brachot, including the blessing for an Aliyah to the Torah and the Kiddush. Some of the students in our Wednesday class celebrated their completion of the Hebrew Reading Book with a “siyyum” and had a special snack. These students are now working in a prayer packet, where they earn stickers for practicing and mastering a prayer.
