Dear
7th grade parents,
This
week the 7th grade students jumped into a new unit and learned about the
elderly. The students watched clips of movies where the elders were portrayed
in positive and negative light and we discussed how those ideas of senior
citizens may be true or stereotypical. Later in the day the students drew self
portraits at 70 years old. The students then wrote down three goals they wished
to accomplish by the time they were 70. They then talked about what they had
learned from the elders and what they still can learn from their elders. These
activities got the students excited for our field trip Sunday
March 22, 2015 when we go to Coville Assisted Living. We will be playing
Passover Bingo with the seniors and are excited to meet new people and hear
their stories.
As
always it is a pleasure working with your children and we look forward to
seeing them this sunday.
David

Please Join us this Friday, March 23, 2015 for TGIS! Both David and I will be
participating and we would love to see the 7th grade class. The 7th graders
will have many opportunities to sing along to the prayers in TGIS because they
are the same songs that we have been singing during our Song Session. We hope
to see you all there! Services are from 6:00-7:00 pm.
