Kitah Aleph Update

Dear Parents,

Fall Fix Up was a success! We had such a great time raking leaves with our students and their families. We are beginning our next unit on G'milut Chasadim (Being a Jewish Hero).  We will also learn about Derech Eretz (Respect) which will tie into our unit of Acts of Kindness and the students will understand the lesson since they participated in giving of themselves on Sunday. Experiencing acts of kindness is more meaningful when we actually participate in the act itself.

This Sunday we will meet at The Jewish Community Service (Shalom Street) for our field trip. Parents are welcomed to stay but its not mandatory. We will resume our letters and vowels and begin talking about our Shabbat Bear. Each student will take home the bear and have Shabbat dinner with the bear. There will be a worksheet with a few brief questions you and your child can do together. The bear will be sent home each Sunday and returned the following Sunday for the next student to take home. Looking forward to being in our new classroom next week! Your children are very excited as they have been watching the progress of the construction.

Have a great week and we will see you on Sunday!

Thank you,
Morah Dresner Wais (Lisa)
