Purim Prep

Well, I hope everyone had a wonderful Purim! Here are some pics of the beautiful SHalach Manot (Purim Baskets) we made in Hebrew school.

They contained everything one needs for the four mitzvahs of Purim:
1) Tzedaka Box for Matanot LaEvyonim (Gifts to the poor)
2) You can use the Tzedakah Box as a gragger when you listen to the Megillah
3) Two food items (a homemade Hamentash we made in class) and a candy for Mishloach Manot
4) The food can tzedakah can be used during your Purim Meal

Those are the four M's of Purim: Matanot LaEvyonim, Megillah, Mishloach Manot and Mishteh (feast)

All the best,

Rabbi B

Hello Grade 4, This week we learned all about our Hebrew colours. We will be using them each week as adjectives for other hebrew vocabulary words we already know. I am very proud of how much attention you guys gave to this activity.

As well, in Aleph Champ, let us wish a huge Mazal Tov to Zoe (Leah) on her graduation from level purple to brown!! Just one more workbook away from Grey/Black! Keep up the incredible work!!

In the Grey/Black language level we have already learned and memorized over 40 hebrew words, prefixes and suffixes. Keep it up guys!

We will begin learning all about Purim in the coming weeks!!
