Welcome to our first Virtual Class Library. This week we read books in class on Diversity. This led us to many discussions and meaningful dialogue. If you would like to read the stories with your child again… please click on the book and that will bring you to the read-aloud. Enjoy!
Our incredible Knesset members, and devoted faculty Maccabiah Committee, have been working tirelessly to plan a fun, engaging, family virtual Maccabiah Games day!
The schedule for the day will look as follows:
Here is an ABC Countdown until Summer! Something fun for you to do each day at home if you choose! Choose one, Choose none, Choose all! Enjoy!!!!
Our new vocabulary unit is all about fruit – פּירות (perot)
On Shavuot, people brought the first fruits of the field בּיכורים (bikkurim) to the temple to offer thanks to G-d.
Please watch and listen to the following slideshow to learn the names of the fruits in Hebrew. Then go to Flipgrid and in Hebrew…tell me your favourite fruit:
…הַפְּרִי הָאָהוּב עָלַי הוּא
Dear Kindergarten,
So many things to share! Today you can print Flat Morah Yaffa, and take me with you for the next month on your many activities and adventures. There is a grid to help you with some ideas as well as your own. Please watch the Screencastify to explain how this can work, (also on the schedule). This idea comes from the Flat Stanley series, which is a book you may want to read with your children.
Yesterday we took a virtual tour of the Jelly Belly Factory in San Francisco. We took a bus there and decided to fly home instead! Here is the Jelly Belly Factory link again if you want to visit it again. We look forward to more virtual trips in the coming month of June!
Today we will celebrate with an ice-cream and fruit party for Shavuot! Chag Sameach Everyone!

Our Hebrew letters of the week are…Shin & Sin!
They are like twins… but Shin has a dot on the right, and Sin has a dot on the left.
It will help you to remember if you think of the Shema. When we say it we cover our eyes with our right hand (yad yamin) that is the same for Shin. Shin also rhymes with yamin.
Shin makes a sound like when you want someone to be quiet, shhh! It sounds like this:
Sin makes a sound like a snake hissing, it sounds like this:
Now let’s make שׁ & שׂ with our bodies!
This is how we make a Shin:
This is how we make a Sin:
Now let’s print them on paper:
Here is this week’s work for the letter sin (we started the year with Shin for Shalom so it was already done at school!).
Remember that you can work on it at your own pace.
When you are done, please take a picture and send it to: s.waldman@theojcs.ca
To learn more about the letters shin and sin including Hebrew reading practice, play this week’s assigned aleph bet game on JiTap: Shin says Shema and Sin likes to sing
