Morah Kleiman Class Update


Dear Parents,

Our class has been exploring the history of Michigan's and Detroit's Jewish community.   We have had educators, from the Jewish Historical Society of Michigan , work with our class. They have brought Detroit's Jewish history to life, using an interactive curriculum designed for religious school students from 5th - 7th grade. The students were introduced to early pioneers who traveled by canoe from Montreal, Canada & returned for Rosh Hashanah every year. They played a game, using Yiddish expressions and learned about the ways these entrepreneurs made a living. It was lots of fun and the kids really enjoyed it. Our class really absorbed the materials taught and had fun while doing so. It was great to be a part of this.

 We are looking forward to our tour this Sunday March 13, of Jewish Detroit!  Please have your children at religious school early to board the bus at 8:45am. We are leaving promptly at 9:00am. I hope some of you will join us. It is a fun and interesting tour and am looking forward to going.

Any questions please feel free to contact me or Allison Gutman.

Shabbat Shalom

Cillia Kleiman
