Shalom U'vracha Fourth Grade Parents,
Welcome Back and what a great first week we had in Kita Daled1
After a general introduction about the five books of the Torah we began Parashat Vayeitsei. We worked on different Chumash vocabulary from perek 28 pasukim 11- 15: such as: Vayeitsei, vayelech, vayelen, ki ba hashemesh, sulam, chalom.
The students also learned that many times the letter heh at the end of a word can be replaced by the letter lamed at the beginning of the word where it means "to" like : Charanah means the same as L'Charan. We played games to enforce the vocabulary and already had hw this past week. Please review psukim 11-15 in perek 28 Parashat Vayeitsei with your child.
Navi: We are learning Sefer Yehoshua this year and began by familiarizing ourselves with the map of Eretz Canaan and the different territories the tribes received when they conquered and settled there.
We remembered that Moshe Rabbeinu conquered the eastern side of the Jordan and Hashem passed the leadership to Yehoshua. It was Yehoshua Ben Nun who led Bnei Yisrael into Eretz Canaan, their first stop being Gilgal. We will start with the mitzvah of the conquest of Eretz Canaan.
In Dinim we got our Elul and Rosh Hashana packet and will continue working on that this week, too.
On Friday the children learned about Parshat Shoftim. I hope they shared it with you . Please sign and return tomorrow. We also had an Oneg Shabbat which we all enjoyed by singing and a wordsearch.
That's it for first week of school!
Shavua Tov!
Rabbi Elbaz
