Kitah Gimmel visited Hillel Lodge to bake Hamentashen with the residents. We had a wonderful time learning to make the delicious cookies and learned a few special tricks on how to fold them!

Exciting News for Grade 3!
Good morning Grade 3 and Grade 3 parents,
Today a letter and permission form will be coming home regarding the soft launch of grade 3 student blogfolios!
The ultimate goal is to help students learn communication, reflection, and digital citizenship skills, including online safety, that will help them throughout their lives. Here are some examples of the different types of blogfolios from one of the older grades in our school.
Public Blogfolio – This student has been blogging since Kindergarten. It’s wonderful to see how her learning has grown and developed over time.
Public Avatar Blogfolio – This student has just begun her blogging journey and has chosen to keep her name and identity private. We are still able to see her growth and interact with her on her journey. Notice how students have learned to respect her privacy by using the alias in the comments as well.
Password Protected Blogfolio – This student has shared her name and is open to leaving some posts public, however when she shares pictures or videos, she has password protected the post. Only those who have been approved by her or her parents are allowed to know the password.
Private Blogfolio – This blog is completely private. Unless you have an Edublogs account and have been granted access to this blog, you will not be able to see the content.
If you could sign and return the permission form by Monday, March 9th, 2020, I will add an electronic copy here.
We are so excited to finally begin to build a spot for all of our awesome work! If you have any questions or queries please do not hesitate to email.
The Grade 3 team.
RUACH WEEK!

The Grade 3 Team
Rosh Chodesh Adar
This month we have been learning the Tefilla for Rosh Chodesh Adar. The students of Kitah Gimmel were very excited to demonstrate their knowledge of the Tefilla and sing it as a class!
This week in Kitah Gimmel
We had a busy week in Kitah Gimmel! We spent time practising the new prayers we learned and started presenting our “Mi Ani” “Who am I” projects to the class.
Shabbat Shalom!
Blogger of the Week – Ben!
Welcome to the grade 3 blog! We have been doing lots of cool of things in school lately so I’ve put them on our blog.
In Hebrew, we are learning about our friends and it’s fun it was like guess who!
My Hebrew Word of the week is: טו בשבט. This means the new year/birthday of the trees.
It’s gym time for basketball 🏀 and soccer ⚽️!? It’s so fun.
It’s time for our Rosh Chodesh Shevat assembly, Monday, we are learning about the environment in Isreal and how our Green Team in school is helping the environment.
Here we are at novel study time. We are reading the BFG. We laughed about Whizzpopping today!
Here we are with the Shinshinshim. We had an Israeli avatar theme. We used Virtual reality.
Thank you for reading our grade 3 blog. I hope you enjoy the next blogger of the week…we will find out soon!
The SHUK is here…and we will be there tomorrow!
We are excited to share that the Grade Six Hebrew 2 class will be holding a shuk (market) this week!
The Grade 6 class just completed a course of study about Jerusalem and its very famous market area, Shuk Machane Yehuda. Many items will be sold, such as video games, toys, books, and snacks. Like in every shuk in Israel, “bargaining” is always encouraged and welcomed. Items sold will cost anywhere from 5 cents to a maximum of 5 dollars. We would love to see your child bargaining at our shuk and see how 5 dollars can take them a long way.
If you have not sent in money, please remember to send it tomorrow!
Thanks,
Miss M and Morah Sigal
Ha’Shavua in Kitah Gimmel
This week Kitah Gimmel played a Kahoot game to review what we have learned from our Chumash class, parashat Vayeira. A few students have also volunteered to practise a new Tefilla for Rosh Chodesh that we are learning, and will be reviewing the tefilla with the rest of the class in the coming weeks.
Shabbat Shalom!

Mi Ani Kitah Gimmel
This week Kitah Gimmel has been excitedly working on a new project called “Mi Ani” (who am I?). Each student was tasked with learning new information about a fellow classmate (each student was given a list of questions in Ivrit), without them figuring out who is writing about them! Kitah Gimmel is excited to present their projects to the class, and seeing whether their classmates can figure out who they wrote about!
