This past weekend was a lot of fun!
On Sunday our Kindergarten students
read the book "A Mezuzah on the Door" by Amy Meltzer. Then they went on
a "mezuzah hunt" to see all the beautiful mezuzot around Temple
Judea. Students also painted their own mezuzot. They are going to be beautiful!
Children
in second grade continued their journey with the Israelites and the Exodus from
Egypt. They discussed how Pharaoh would not let the Israelites go and how
one persons’ stubbornness brought misery to all Egyptians with the Ten
Plagues. Students enjoyed singing and dancing during Music.
Third grade had a great time participating
in a family program with our Youth Coordinator Sharon Israel Moskovitz. It was
great seeing so many families!
Fourth
graders continued to discuss the connection between Abraham, Land and Blessing.
Children listed seven ways that they could be a blessing and then shared
their answers with one another. All answers were very thoughtful and honest!
Fifth grade continued reviewing
Yotzer Or and the Avot prayers. The class also finished their work in
Chapter Eight. During ‘Tefillah in the Classroom’ students focused on the
concept of Revelation.
Students in sixth grade had a
great time video chatting with children in Israel through the Yachdav program.
The class continued to work on their newspaper articles to share with their
new found Israeli friends. The articles focus on American culture.
We're looking forward to another wonderful week!
