Month: November 2018

The Grade Three class  is very excited about the OJCS Reading Challenge. We have already read 156 books in just three days! Adam P. is keeping a tally of books read, and I have a feeling he will be graphing our monthly results as well. Miss M. and I are so excited to see so much reading happening at home and school. We hope the children do not try to stay up until midnight reading 🙂 Miss M, and I have to start our reading too, as we are asked each morning about the books we are reading.

Our Hanukkah show is fast approaching and with all the preparations and rehearsals, I realized I have not shared key information about the evening:

• The show will begin at 6pm and will last approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Children will be sitting with their class and teachers
• All the children are asked to wear shirts or dresses (for the girls) that are colors of a flame (either orange, red or yellow)
• The new families will be invited to the front with Rabbi Finkelstein to light the Menorah.

Any questions or queries, please feel free to ask!

See you on Thursday for our wonderful celebration.

Our Grade 3 Knesset rep, Adam, made a motivating speech to the class yesterday. He has created a ‘comment/feedback’ box for Grade 3 so he can collect their thoughts and ideas to share in his Knesset meeting. What an amazing leader we have connecting us with the school Knesset.

Every two weeks, two members of Grade 3 will be asked to bring in a flower/plant. I will pop a note in the selected student’s agenda so whoever has been selected and post on our blog. This week Sam and Charlotte have been asked to bring one in.

Any issues, please contact Morah Sigal.

Grade 3 had so much fun learning about popular sports in Isreal with Liam and Inbar. The final picture shows the medals we were awarded as a class. Well done Grade 3!
