Hebrew – Word of the day!

Here in Grade 3, we are very proud of the new vocabulary we learn each day… not necessarily just in class! So we thought, “why keep it to ourselves!?” Each day we will be sharing a short video with a student teaching their new word to the class.

Here is the first one:

אֶתְמוֹל לָמַדְתִּי מִלָּה חֲדָשָׁה

סַבְלָנוּת

לַהוֹרִים שֶׁלִּי יֵשׁ הַרְבֵּה סַבְלָנוּת, לְמוֹרָה סִגָּל וּמִיס מ’  יֵשׁ סַבְלָנוּת וְלָאַחִים שֶׁלִּי אֵין סַבְלָנוּת.

וְלִי יֵשׁ קְצָת סַבְלָנוּת

שְׁמוּאֵל כִּתָּה גּ’

The story behind Purim includes Queen Vashti being humiliated by her husband, a murder plot against the king, a new queen Esther, a wise man called Mordecai, the evil Haman trying to wipe out the entire Jewish people, and the Jews taking revenge by hanging Haman and all of his sons.

In Hebrew we are doing tefillah here is a video of tefillah to show you. I enjoy tefillah because we get to sing and have fun.

In Hebrew we are doing the blue book. The blue book helps us with our new Hebrew words.


In gym class we played a game called Shark Attack. You had a rope and a scooter and there was an island and a safe place and a not safe place. You had to get from one side to the other without being caught. We worked on our teamwork and collaboration. This means you have to work together. If you do not understand here is a video.

We read a story with Ms Signer. We read a story about a boy who was not allowed to learn to read because of  the colour of his skin. The book is called More Than Anything Else.


There is a new blogging group and there is a lot new bloggers, ready to get started.
Here’s a picture of them.

In Hebrew we play a game called Catch the Ball. Morah Sigal throws and whoever catches has to answers the question. We have to speak in Hebrew and we can ask for help from our friends.

In English we are reading a book called MR.POPPER’S PENGUINS. We are researching about penguins in computer time and using the things we learned with Miss M in the blogging group to make a google doc.


In Hebrew we were working in our yellow book. We read the sections from the Torah and we answer questions. We are practicing our hebrew writing. 



I led the anthems today here is a small video.

In music we were making our own rhythm and singing songs with Mr R

At the start of the day, we get quiet time to read. We read books for about ten minutes then we start our work. 

In French we did a lot of things this week! We did reading our French play which is about the animals in a swamp throwing a surprise birthday party. We had to figure out scrambled sentences from the play and put them together to make a sentence. Monsieur P read to us a Robert Munch book. Here are some pictures.

The shinshinim came into our class and did Eurovision! It was so fun, we all had to practise a song which was by an Israeli artist and we had to perform the song, lip syncing and dancing. Here is a video of the class doing it.

In Art we are making Egyptian cats and writing our names in hieroglyphs.


Don’t forget it is the OJCS ‘WEEK of RUACH!’ next week! Let Adam, our Grade 3 Knesset rep, remind you what each day is about:

French play

Dear parents,

There have been a few changes to our annual French plays. This year, the Grade 3 class will be performing their plays in front of the ADK class instead of the school wide presentations of years past. As part of this week’s Plan de Travail, there is a slip of paper for the students to rank their top 3 roles in order. We have also changed to a different play called “Les animaux du Bayou”

All the best,

Aaron
