Dear Fourth-Sixth Grade Families-
What a great learning week! We began our Hebrew reading re-evaluation and so far the results are remarkable. Shaarey Zedek students are becoming great readers! We have only completed testing on a little more than half the kids, but we are noticing a huge improvement in reading skills. They are reading more accurately and fluently. We are all very excited!
On Tuesday we got to engage in an experiential learning session about טו בשבט (Tu B'Shvat), the New Year of the Trees. The class taste-tested the שבעת המינים (seven kinds), consisting of dates, olives, grapes, wheat, barley, figs and pomegranate. Then we celebrated the birthday for the trees.
It was a fun and educational experience. I wish everyone a healthy and restful Shabbat.
B'Shalom,
Donna Katz
