Shalom kitah bet parents,

I hope you had a wonderful Pesach holiday and break! It is great having ALL the kids back at school today.

Hebrew homework for the next two weeks can be found on Classkick.

Students are reading and completing activities for the story:

?לָמָּה לוֹבֶשֶׁת הַזֶּבְּרָה פִּיגָמָה “Why Does the Zebra Always Wear Pajamas?”

All instructions are on the Classkick slides. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.

Shavua Tov!

 Model Seder

Please note that the Model Seder for kitah bet will take place next Wednesday, April 13th.

Each student is asked to bring to school on that day (in addition to his/her lunch) the following:

• 1 hard boiled egg, peeled and wrapped in plastic/foil wrap
• 1 stalk of celery
• 1 piece of romaine lettuce

The remainder of the Seder ingredients will be provided by the P.T.A : horseradish, egg matzah, grape juice, and NUT FREE charoset.

Should you have any concerns regarding food allergies, please provide your child with his/her own food.

We also ask that each student come to school dressed in holiday clothing. If they wish to change out of their nice clothing, please send in their uniform.

Hebrew Homework:

In their backpacks, the students have a photocopied story of Passover. This week they are asked to read

the story and highlight any words they find that are related to Passover.

Here is the link to the Passover story we read together in class.                                             Feel free to peruse at your leisure.

This week the yeladim will continue to read the story “ha’afikoman” on Classkick (slides 15 – 24)

There will be a recording of the reading for each page for those who wish to listen before they read on their own.

 

 

 

Spring is here….Passover is coming!!

Homework this week is to read the first half of the story “The Afikoman”. You can find the Classkick link here.

Shalom Kitah bet! Happy “almost” month of Adar!

For the next several weeks we will be changing up the Hebrew homework just a bit:

• Students will continue to bring home their blue machberet with a new reading insert.
• Students will have as many nights as needed to do the reading and get it initialed by a parent.
• As they finish a reading, they will take a new one in class. This will allow for those who wish to practise more, to move ahead, and for those who want to take their time, to do so at there own pace.
• Students should copy the first 2 – 3 sentences in cursive. They will have some time in class to begin this.
• Hyflex students will get the reading inserts when they return to class.

As always, please reach out if you have any questions. 

Shavua tov,

Today the children are bringing home their blue Hebrew notebook (machberet). Their homework is to copy the first 3 sentences in cursive (most of them have completed this step in class). They are to read the short story about a turtle and get an adult to initial the page.

Some students have two questions to answer in Hebrew as well. If your child doesn’t have the two questions in their machberet, they are welcome to find them here on the blog and answer them.

This is due on Wednesday. They will receive another short story on Wednesday which will be due on Friday. Part of the homework is to be responisble for returning their machberet and not forgetting it at home. 🙂

Have a wonderful rest of your week!

 

In Kitah bet we are learning the t’fila, Ashrei. For the next two weeks, our homework will be practicing the prayer at home. Here is the link to the homework on Classkick. This week the students can work on slides 1 – 6, and next week they can do slides 7 – 12.

Shavua tov kitah bet,

For the next TWO weeks students in kitah bet will be reading the Hanukkah story for homework. They can take a break from recording themselves. Instead, as they read they should highlight words that are connected to Hanukkah. (There are no wrong answers!) Here is the link to Classkick.
