Dear Parents,
Our learners have begun our initial steps focusing on the
Passover Seder. As you already know we are participating in a Project Based
Learning unit on Passover. Project based learning engages students in
curricular content in ways that are exciting, relevant, and meaningful. The kids have already decided what portion of
the Seder interests them and what they would like to learn more about &
share with the rest of the class. The children will be working in groups
creating together, a detailed
presentation about the history and meaning about a particular portion of the
Seder. They will present it in mid April, when we get back from vacation,
which is right before Passover. They were very
proud of their Chanukah projects & are eager to work on Passover. The small
groups really work as a team, so if you could try and get them to Religious
school it would be very helpful. We don't have a lot of time to work on this.
On March 13, our class is visiting "Jewish Detroit" and will have a few
classes given by a Detroit Jewish Historical Society educator. You are invited to join us on this wonderful tour.
As you can see we have a very busy and exciting semester
ahead. I appreciate you working with me to help educate your children in their
Jewish heritage.
Shabbat Shalom
Cillia Kleiman
