5th Grade News By Nava Turoff and Zahava Volkov
Welcome back! We hope you had a good break! This week in Mrs.
Kirshner’s class we finished our first Inyan in Chumash. We had so much
fun at the Siyum on Friday! In Mrs. Schur’s class
we had our first
Rosh Chodesh
raffle and we
switched seats.
We love practicing
Shiras Chana and
we are getting
better and better
at it! Have a
wonderful
Shabbos!

4th Grade News By Eliana Ross, Gaby London and Daniella Brenner
This week in Mrs. Dubovick's 4th grade class, we
learned a song in our Dikduk workbooks for the 1st
time! We had our Ivrit list #3 and keywords tests.
We’re all adjusting to our new seats. We’re also very
excited that we finally have a new teacher—Ms. Karen
Benezra. We had our 2nd Rosh Chodesh store and it
is so exciting. We bought such cute prizes with our
stars that we earned all month! We all enjoyed
making our Sukkah guitar decorations and hanging
them in our Sukkah (see picture). Have a great

MIDDOS MATTER CORNER
Arie Crown's Middos Matter school-wide initiative is
off to a great start! “Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be
Safe” is our theme.
One of the key elements of a successful PBIS
program is the use of tokens. Tokens are designed to
reinforce positive behaviors in all areas of the school.
Teachers can reward Respectful, Responsible, or Safe
behavior by giving a student a token. Teachers can
give a token to ANY student at Arie Crown! Students
will put their tokens in any of the installed hallway
mailboxes, which can be found in all four wings of
the school. On Fridays, winners are randomly chosen
from among all of the tokens earned and will receive
a special prize from the administration! All classes
will participate in our next round of assemblies this
coming Monday, Nov. 4, at which students will be
introduced to our exciting token system! We will also
be setting whole school token targets with a prize for
the entire school when we reach our designated total
number of tokens. Check this Middos Matter corner
for further details!
* * * * * ALL STARS!! * * * * *
As part of our new Middos Matter program, teachers have
been writing positive referrals for students showing off
their Respectful, Responsible and Safe behaviors around
school. Every week, we randomly select 5 students from
the All Stars to see Rabbi Samber and receive a small
prize. Congratulations to last week's winners!

The Kindergarten classes at Arie Crown explored the difference between light and dark for the
Parsha of Bereishis. They learned all about the electron and how it glows when it gets excited,
often through a chemical reaction. We learned that the sun gives off UV light that we cannot see,
but with the help of a special filtered flashlight, we were able to see it. We used the UV
flashlights to explore glowing objects as well as ourselves. This is the essence of our parsha
science program, Vayehi Ohr, enlightening our students’ minds to Torah through science!

Dear Families,
The Box Tops for Education program is changing the way we can earn cash for our school!
Over the summer, participating brands have begun to change their packaging from the traditional Box Tops clip to the new Box Tops label.
Going forward, instead of clipping from packages and checking expiration dates, all Box Tops will be earned digitally by scanning your receipt. The Box Tops for Education team has worked hard to build a NEW-and-improved, user-friendly Box Tops mobile app, available now.
The new app features state-of-the-art technology that allows you to scan your store receipt, find participating products and instantly add Box Tops to our school's earnings online.
If you still have traditional Box Tops clips at home, make sure to send them to school. We will still earn cash for all clipped Box Tops until they expire. Better yet, you can “double dip” during the packaging transition by clipping traditional Box Tops AND scanning your store receipt containing participating products.
Thanks for helping our school get what it needs!
BE SURE TO DOWNLOAD THE NEW APP OR UPDATE YOUR EXISTING APP:
