Parsha Yitro

Great class today! We studied parsha Yitro. Using Notebook 10 software, the preferred software for the Smartboard, I created an interactive way to teach the ten commandments. When class ended, practically all of the kids could recite them in order.

We talked about honoring one's parents, and I gave the students a tidbit that I learned from Rabbi Furman: anticipating parents' needs and fulfilling them BEFORE the parents ask is one of the ultimate forms of honoring them. I hope the learning sinks in!

We also completed a Yitro Parsha play and the students saw a wonderful Itcky Kadoozy from the Chabad site.

1. Please make sure your child makes it to class on time. Today, I had a number of kids file in up to 20 minutes after the start bell.

2. Come to MINYAN YELEDIM. Come to MINYAN YELEDIM. Come to Minyan Yeledim.

When? Every Shabbat starting at 10:15 AM. I lead the services and I've been told they're a blast.
