Hebrew

Each Friday afternoon, the Grade 3 classes have been getting together via Google Meet. We have enjoyed Kahoot games that helped us review schoolwork. Special friendship interviews had students in 3A and 3B talking with each other on Google hangouts and getting to know each other a little better.

Today we were lucky enough to spend time with the authors of our Chumash workbooks. Noam and Dalia Reshef have taught for many years in Israel and Montreal. They decided to make workbooks easier and more interesting for children to learn Chumash. We had fun looking through the book and learning with them today. Mme. Stephanie joined our meet today and we found out that Noam and Dalia are her in-laws.

 

Kitah Gimmel Israel Projects

The last three weeks have been very busy in Kitah Gimmel. We have been researching and developing our projects on our choice cities in Israel, and were very excited to share our 3D models (using only things we already had at home!) with the class. We have been learning from each other about different cities, new cultural foods, and ancient holy places.

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!

Good Morning Grade 3 and Grade 3 Parents,

As you can see Wednesday is a class theme – Grade 3 has decided they would like to dress up as Disney Characters.

Here is to a fabulous week! Any questions, please feel free to email any of the Grade 3 teams.

All the best,

The Grade 3 Team

 

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
