Dear First Grade Parents,

This week the First graders learned in our Judaic class bout the month of Elul( חדש אלול).
We practiced blowing the Shofar and called out the different names of the blowing. We learned that we do more of the three following in this month:תשובה תפילה וצדקה- Teshuvah(repentance), Tefilah(prayers) and Tzedakah(Charity).

We also practice the recognizing and reading Hebrew. We went over the Patach and Kamats vowels.
Today we discussed the portion of the week and I sent with them a little packet to go over with them. This packet is suppose to be a family fun activity for Friday night(preferably). If it is possible, please sign it and send it back to school on Monday.

We had a fun and interesting week in our class. I thank you for allowing me to teach your wonderful children.
Shabbat Shalom,
Mrs. Bass
