Monday September 25, 2017 – Grade 6

Shalom Everyone:

During Hebrew class we talked about Yom Kipur and the importance of Selichah – Forgiveness.  As we are learning the Kidush, we continued reading it and chanting it.

The students are doing really well and I would like to remind you that they should be practicing at home.  They all have a copy of the prayer and to make things easy, I’m including an audio clip in this blurb.

Wishing you all Ge’mar Chatima Tova.

===================================================================Dear Parents:

This week Cantor C’s grade six class went all the way back to the beginning of Jewish history. We reviewed each book of the Torah and learned the basic themes in each one. We will begin looking at the times of the Kings and Prophets next week.

G’mar Chatima Tova!

Cantor C.

====================================================

This week in Grade 6 we continued our discussion on the Jewish people’s 40 years of wandering in the desert, spanning from the book of Leviticus to Deuteronomy. In small groups, students engaged with differing perspectives on these sections of the Torah, and were challenged to convey those perspectives to the rest of the group. Next week students will work on developing their own opinions on 40 years of wandering.
