Dear Parents,
It was a reunion of sorts for me this morning. I happy
to have so many siblings of my former students and to see all of you again. We
can skip some of the introductory business and get to work, and that is what we
did today...
It was a great opening
day in Kitah Bet. I hope
your children agree with me on this observation . .
Our temporary room is
very homey and roomy and we will be very comfortable in it as long as
need be.
We began our day with a
word search which was an outline for me to explain to your children
a little bit what we would be learning and doing this year. This should be in
their take-home folder and can be recycled.
We began our "Bracha Book" which will be an
ongoing piece of work for the year. Today we entered the "shehecheyanu" prayer into our Bracha book to
celebrate our first day together.
I shared with your
children the book "The First Gift". It is a book about parents'
giving us our name. They received a homework assignment for you to
complete with them about their name. They will share this with the class during
the next week. Did your children tell you about your homework assignment? They
were very excited that you had homework!
There is always lots of
"business' to talk about at the beginning of the year. Today I told your
children that bringing a water bottle to class would be a good idea. They may
also bring snacks to class as long as they are Kosher.
I sent this first e-mail
to all the e-mail addresses I had for your family. Please let me know what
e-mail addresses you would like me to use when I send out e-mails.
I want to make this year
this best possible for you and your child. If you have any questions or
concerns or anything I should know to make for the best experience, please let
me know.
We missed Ivy and
Addison today. I will see everyone on Tuesday in the lobby.
