Religious School 9/29

This week in Intermediate Sheni, we

• Posted to our G'milut Chasadim (Acts of Lovingkindness) Tree. Each week, the kids will post a good act that they did. Our tree will bloom throughout the year. 
• Practiced Shofar Blowing with a real shofar! (Plus some homemade paper ones)
• Talked about the Creation- this week's portion!
• Read about receiving the ten commandments. 

We need snacks in Class! There is a sign-up sheet on the door - please plan on bringing at least one week of snack! There are 12 students in class. 

Looking forward to a great year with a great class!

In the Fourth Grade, students will learn about stories of the prophets while also examining the Parsha of the week. The class will also do a comprehensive study of  the mitzvah of Gemilut Chasadim. The students will look at a number of Jewish concepts/mitzvot such as Tikkun Olam, Bikkur Cholim, and Tzedakah. Students in fourth grade will spend much of their second semester examining the make-up and content of the Hagaddah. They will look at the meaning behind Passover, and gain a greater understanding for the rituals and traditions involved in the Passover seder. Students will continue to look at each of the Jewish holidays as they occur throughout the year.
