The WONDERFUL World of….READING”

Dear Parents,

I feel that I would be remiss if I did not devote this week’s column to mention the wonderful Reading/Book Fair held at Tehilas Chaya Sara this week!

Reading, as we know, holds the key to a child’s mind and is the path to building foundations of learning and information in years to come. If we were to summarize some of the research regarding the benefits of read-ing, the list might look something like this. Reading helps with vocabu-lary expansion since the more you read, the more words you are exposed to, and those words inevitably make their way into your everyday vocabu-lary. It also helps improve and enhance writing skills because exposure to well-written work has a noted effect on one’s own writing. Additional-ly, when reading, one acquires knowledge, builds stronger thinking skills and improves one’s focus and concentration. Reading has also been proven to help keep the brain sharp and healthy, build tranquility and reduce stress!

This year’s book fair was a great opportunity to purchase new books (Both Judaic and secular), meet and hear from Mrs. Malky Weinstock, author of the popular “Yael” books, and view our students’ (grades 4-8) “creative cupcakes” decorated to represent a book they read and wrote about.

THANK YOU Mrs. Werner for a magnificent fair! I would like to thank all of the mothers who came, and the mothers who helped to make the fair a success!

Gut Shabbos!

Mrs Raitzik

Thank you!

All of the box tops

added up and

started learning about ener-

Did you hear all those funny “br,

gr, sl, sm,” sounds coming out

of our classroom? You’re proba-

bly wondering what they are, so

we’ll tell you. It was all of us act-

ing like “blenders” as we

learned how to read real blends.

As a special treat Mrs Lemberg-

er made a delicious drink for us

in a real blender.

Remember to bring in your

checklist on Monday!

What an unbelievable job the 7th grade did in singing and acting out the song Lecha Dodi, at our rosh chodesh shevat as-sembly. After receiving a “fruity” treat ,our talmidos all learned how to fold napkins לכבוד שבת . Thank you to our eighth graders for teaching the girls how to enhance their Shabbos table. Our fourth through eighth graders were then introduced to our “What Shabbos means to Me” writing and drawing contest. All entries must be submitted by Jan 21- ו בשבט“ט .

זכור

The גמרא derives that the מצוה of קדוש is learned from the words את

“זכור את יום השבת לקדשו” . This is the single מצות עשה on שבת .

We should sanctify the שבת with a verbal declaration by reciting קדוש over wine at the beginning of שבת on Friday night. Kiddush should be made over a cup of wine, which is a symbol of joy at happy occasions. to ingrain in our – שבת is meant to remind us of the beauty of קידוש hearts and minds the belief that 'ה created the world in six days and rested on the seventh day )זכר למעשה בראשית( and that he continues to control it

it was clear that מצרים left כלל ישראל At the time that .(זכר ליציאת מצרים( .controls and runs the world ה'

We discussed the different minhagim there are whether one standד, sits, or stand and then sits for kiddush.

Our weekly raffle winners were Etti Besancon—3rd grade and Avigail Zaks - 7th grade
