Kitah Alef Update

Dear Parents,
 
We had a very busy day on Sunday. We made mishloah-manot bags filled
with hamantashen and other treats. Hope you enjoyed  your special card your
child made. In class, we made masks and graggers which the students can shake
when they hear Haman's name. We learned the letter Samech and practiced writing
it several times. The students each read from various pages some were one word,
some were up to four words. They did a great job and really understood what they
were reading. The students are able to recognize the dfifference between letters
and vowels. We did an exercise that involved looking at four pictures and being
able to fill in the blank for the picture that didn't belong. At the end of the
exercise, the students needed to be detectives and crack the code to figure out
what letters were remaining so they could form the word from the clues given.
The mystery word was Sukkah. The students were very excited that they solved the
puzzle.
 
We will begin talking about Passover and continue learning new
letters and reviewing vowels. I hope you have a good rest of your week and I
look forward to seeing your children on Sunday.
 
Shabbat Shalom
