Morah Schlussel Hebrew Update

Dear Parents,

This last week has seemed to have zoomed by.  Again we began each Hebrew school day with Tefillah led by Assistant Cantor Gutman. The children are participating beautifully . They are getting to know the melodies and the chanting of these important prayers. They primary prayers we are focusing on in tefillah is with Ashrei, Ein Keloheinu, Adon Olam, and Aleinu, 

We began our Kol Yisrael book in 5th and 6th grade. The lesson introduces the Barchu prayer. I gave the students a sheet taken right from the book to practice at home. It is just a few lines of reading practice and it will be a good review before our next class on Sunday. Ask your child to show you the sheet and if you have time, it would be great if you could sit down and review those few lines together.

We continued  testing the 4th graders to decide how to divide them into appropriate reading groups.

If I do not get another opportunity before Rosh Hashana, I want to wish you together with your entire families a Shana Tova Umetukah - A happy, healthy and sweet New Year.


                                     Shabat Shalom,  Toby Schlussel
