Hebrew Team Update

Dear Parents,

Welcome back to Shaarey Zedek Religious School for the 2016-17 season. Summer certainly flew by and here we are back into the school year already.

We have finished doing our reading  assessments of the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students and have grouped them appropriately. We will be adjusting some of the groups if necessary as time goes by.  

We began both our Sunday and Tuesday with Teffilot (prayers), lead by Rabbi Dahlen.

We also began our Chugim  (electives) this Sunday, with Gaga, Round Challah Making and Calendar and New Year Card Crafts. All students chose which Chug they wanted to participate in. 

This Tuesday the sixth graders were introduced to the "Torah Service"  that takes place every Shabbat at Shaarey Zedek. 

We are off to a great start in our review of reading and we finished the day on Sunday and Tuesday with two great games, "Shimshon Omer" and "Ani  (name of student), Me at or atah?"

The classes loved the games and they are learning a lot of Hebrew vocabulary while having fun. 

We are very fortunate to have our madrichim assisting us in class. Our madrichim are Sam Arnold, Eli Grey, Jane Hooberman, and Marlee Hooberman. They are very knowledgeable , friendly and a great addition to our classrooms . Please come by and say "hello" when you see them. 

See you this coming Sunday and have a Shabbat Shalom.
