We were busy in 2016...Onward & Upward in 2017



We finished 2016 with the letter ו (vav).  ו is very close in its shape to the letter ר (reish).  However, it  has a much shorter roof and is very thin. In addition ו is used as a prefix meaning ""and".  Here are some words that we learned that start with ו.

Rose                 Veh-red                        ורד

Pink                  Vah-road                     ורוד

Curtain             Vee-lon                       וילון


The focus in Judaics as we wrapped up 2016 was on the chag of Chanukah.  We enjoyed learning the story of Chanukah, key Hebrew words and prayers, as well as having our beautiful Chanukah parties.  Thank you all for the beautiful class gifts.  I was overwhelmed by the thoughtfulness.

LOOKING FORWARD TO ANOTHER PHENOMENAL SEMESTER!
