Dear Parents,
Our class has begun
studying Torah this past week. Upon entering the classroom, the children were
divided up into groups and able to find the words "Bereshit" in both a
small copy of an actual Torah Scroll and a Etz Chaim Chumash. Their task was
to find a specific Hebrew phrase both in the Chumash and then in the
Torah. They noticed the differences in both. It was fun and
exciting for them to be able to unroll the Scroll and read Hebrew without vowels, and find Chapters and verse without numbers in the actual Torah
Scroll.
Through the stories of
our Sacred Scripture, both biblical and rabbinic, I hope the children will
gain an understanding of what God commands us and how to live a life of meaning
and purpose.
For those of you who
have not seen our "Sukkot", please take a few minutes and come into
the main hallway at CSZ. Please make sure to read the paragraphs the children
wrote. They are amazing!! I am so proud of all of them.
Thank you for partnering
with me in your child's education. If you have any questions please feel free to
contact me.
Cillia Kleiman
