Shalom,

I was so impressed with the way the 5th grade students performed only in Hebrew, during the Hanukkah play. The level of Hebrew conversation and learning in class is tremendous, and it is defiantly shown by the students’ confidence level and their enthusiasm to initiate Hebrew conversation.

This week we are learning in the Tal Am book about the different skills required to solve problems.
In Grammar, we are learning topic focused vocabulary and sentence forms- this time about fruit and vegetables. The students are writing and saying their own sentences, using the sentence forms learned, and are chanting a short poem about how to prepare a salad. (This is an opportunity for the students to learn more verbs in a fun and easy way.)

Upcoming quizzes:

1. On Friday, 12/17/10, quiz about fruit and vegetables vocabulary. (Please see attached review sheet and poem sheet. The students already received it in class and put it in their grammar folder. )

2. Oral quiz on the poem on Tuesday, 12/21/10.
