Robin’s Fifth Grade Judaic Newsletter/ Nov. 2
Did I just
write November 2nd?? I don’t know about you, but I can’t
believe it is November already! Another week has flown by in Kita Heh. Two
tests came home this week: one in Chumash the other in Navi. I hope you saw
them both. Your child could earn more points by correcting and returning them
signed. They needed to be returned the latest by Friday (today). In Chumash we have begun perek 42 and are
learning about Yosef’s brothers, who were sent down to Mizraim by their father
Yaakov, to buy food. Yosef recognizes them , but pretends not to, and they do
not recognize him at all. We have yet to delve into these psukim and answer
many questions we have about this interesting event.
In Navi we
learned that perek bet tells us of the interesting “cycle” that recurs in Sefer
Shoftim. Please ask your child to tell you about this “cycle.” We also began
perek gimel and learned about our first shofet ( judge). Ask your child who he
is, who the enemy was, and how many years he oppressed Bnei Yisrael. They might
have to look in the Navi for the answers, as we just talked about it once, so
far.
We continued
our Chumash Crazy Connection projects this week and our signs for Navi, but
have yet to finish them. Some of our time went to auditioning and getting our
parts for the Chanuka play. Please encourage your child to learn his/her part
by heart as soon as possible, the earlier the better.
Today we will
learn about the parsha and your child can’t wait to share their D’var Torah
with you, so please encourage them. Instead of our usual Shabbat party, we will
finish the movie about Young Avraham we began last week Friday.
Thank you
for your ongoing cooperation!
Shabbat
Shalom,
Morah Robin
