Grade 5 – Wednesday October 14

Shalom everyone,
Another great Wednesday. We’ve managed to finish the work on the first prayer  the  Avot.  Students that completed the work first, helped their friends, so that I could spend some time reading with each one individually. Sandra Merovic, our Grade 4 teacher,  is also helping with reading and I know that with the determination of all of our students, they will be great readers. We talked about the second  Parasha in the Torah – the Portion of the week – Noah,    God’s disappointment from the bad people, only Noah was a righteous man in his generation, the flood, and God’s promise to never flood  the world again,  a promise that came in the symbol of a rainbow.
in our session on the Prophets, in role-playing, we interviewed each other to see what each one liked or disliked in his role as a prophet, how each one became a prophet, what made each one a good prophet etc. We also made some advertisements, looking for prophets (you can see them hanging in our class, they are fun!). We wrote a summary, each one about the prophet that he read about.
Next week we will read our summaries, so that each one will know about the three: Samuel, Ezekiel and Hosea and compare them.
It is great to see that the kids are following and participating in the service. They are masters!
Have a great week.
