We were so excited to welcome all of our students back to CBE after a restful and fulfilling break.
This week in 2nd grade, we learned all about Abraham and Sarah and the start of the Jewish people.
This week, we have a special blog all about our K-2 Family Kabbalat Shabbat B’Yachad (KSBY).
This week, 2nd Graders learned the first story of the torah, B’reshit.
It was an especially exciting week for 2nd Grade because it was Simchat Torah
This week, students explored the meaning and objects surrounding Sukkot.
We missed our students this week in our Tuesday and Wednesday Yachad classes. However, we were so excited to see so many 2nd graders at our Yom Kippur activities! We can’t wait to be back together as a class next week to learn all about how special the torah is to us as Jews.
We missed our students on Tuesday when Yachad was closed for Rosh Hashanah, but hope you hear about what we are working on and are excited to learn when we return together in a couple weeks. On Wednesday, students learned all about the stories and traditions that make us Jewish. We learned the Jewish value of L’dor V’dor or from generation to generation and how as Jews we have a long tradition of passing stories and ritual objects through generations. We read the story The Keeping Quilt and learned how one family made a quilt to remember their ancestors and passed it down to their children to tell the story of their family. Then, we each made our own quilt squares with drawings of traditions in their family and objects that make us feel Jewish. Soon, we will have a quilt made up of all our 2nd grade traditions.
This week in 2nd Grade we were so excited to learn all about Rosh Hashanah and tesuva or being our best selves.
