Morah Katz Hebrew Update


Shalom 4th-6th Grade Families:


We had so much fun playing Hebrew baseball, popcorn and "the mind reading" games this week.  We used the blessings in our book, relating to the creation of light and darkness, to play the group games.  We identified the roots of light (אור or), darkness (חשכ choshech), morning (בקר boker) and evening (ערב erev) to translate words from the siddur. 


In our Torah Lab this week, Cantor Gutman, practiced the Barchu blessings before and after the Torah reading Aliya.  Each student got his/her chance to practice saying the blessings and learned the key idea of TKD.  Touch the Torah with the Talit corner, Kiss the Torah with it and then Drop the Talit corner, as we begin the Barchu.


I wish everyone a peaceful Shabbat.


L'Shalom,

Donna Katz
