Dear Parents,
Hope you had a Happy Purim! It was great seeing some of you at CSZ Purim
celebration. We all enjoyed and had lots of Fun!
Our class took some time this week to review the Mitzvot
of Purim. We called them the four M's. They are hearing the Megillah, Mishloach
Manot,( gifts of food to our friends or family), Matanot Levyonim,( charity to
two poor people or families) &
Mishteh ( festive meal). Our class combined two Mitzvot this past week. We
prepared Mishloach Manot, one for themselves to take home to share & one to donate to Yad Ezra. We reviewed
the Purim story & discussed Esther's decision to take a risk & help the
Jews of Persia. We talked about being an "activist" & stand up for what's right & just. The kids are learning how our Patriarchs
& Matriarchs valued truth, justice and the land of Israel.
Shabbat Shalom
Cillia Kleiman
