7th grade class update


Shalom to our 7th grade parents: 

 This week we started to learn about the Holocaust.  We started by discussing Genocide, what is the meaning of this word and how it relates to the Holocaust. We then started an overview of the life of Adolf Hitler and how he came into power and took over Europe.  Over the next few weeks we will get into more depth of our history

 During the second half of our morning on Sunday we partnered with JFS and made some soup, cornbread, and comfort packs for the homeless in Detroit.  The kids were amazing.  I hope that they went home and shared their culinary skills with you.  There was some leftover soup, and we had a taste of the mushroom barley soup. Phenom!  Again, the children were focused and fully participatory in this program.  They really enjoy community service work.  This is such a blessing. 

 You are invited to for a dinner, a tour of the Holocaust Museum, and to hear a survivor's testimony on

 If you have stories to share, about your family history and the Shoah, please do so with your children. We must never forget! 

 Shabbat Shalom! 😃
