Learning Hebrew together

Today we had a great chance to study with the 5th graders. We reviewed words such as brother and sister (אח ואחות), snow (שלג), winter (חורף) , colors and more.

Every 2nd grader was paired to a 5th grader, and they read the text אדון בלון (Mr. Balloon) and worked on italam.

I enjoyed watching them working together, and were proud of them for being listening and serious about their reading.

 

 

Learning about the Negev

 

Today we have started a new unit about the Negev. The students chose a topic they wanted to focus on, searched for  information about it and presented it in class.

We learn about the “Beduim”, people who live in the Negev, water in the Negev solar energy,  oil and about the Ramon crater.

While listening the students had to fill out a sheet and write new facts or information they have learnt from their friends and also what they liked about their friends’ presentation.

Sukkot and more

Hello,

This week we learnt the letter ה and practiced our reading. I read with each of the students in person, while the rest of class were working independently.

For Sukkot We learned about the 4 species in Hebrew (Etrog, Lulav, Hadas, Arava) and the first letter for each one. We also created a decoration for the Sukah.

 

Thank you for your cooperation with the memory game cards. The kids told me about you playing together and teaching some of you new words in Hebrew!

Our next topic will be colors.

Shabbat Shalom and Hag Sameach,

Zehavit Ishak.

 

Pen Pals from Israel

Today we received letters from 4th grade students in Israel. We wrote them back, introduced ourselves (where we live, favorite sports, subject or food) and wished them Shana tova.

We’ll continue this  relationship via emails,  in order to practice Hebrew writing, speaking (by recording)

and also to have an authentic communication and bring Israel to our classroom.
