Hebrew and Judaics October 7

Shalom,

The Fall Holidays are behind us and we can concentrate on learning our Hebrew letters: we learned the letter Alef, practiced how to write the letter correctly. Our Hebrew vocabulary for the letter Alef is: Abba – Dad, Eema Mom, Ani – I am,         Adom – red, Aron Kodesh – holy ark

All the new words are in our Hebrew Dictionary. Also, our current unit in Judaics is about the Torah. We are learning about the first word in the Torah (Bereshit –in the beginning) and about the creation and we will make a beautiful Torah for us to keep. We are also learning about who writes the Torah (a sofer – a scribe) and how it is being made.

Mrs. Charles is coming to our class to do the parash (portion of the week) and work on Tfillot (prayers).

Shabbat Shalom,

Mrs. Kboudi
