Liza's Chug Ivrit Home!

 5th Graders! I can hardly believe how quickly this year has flown by. Next week (May 3rd and 4th) is our LAST WEEK OF CHUG IVRIT!! In preparation for the last week of class, you should practice the blessing after the Torah reading that we learned in class (lines 6-8 on your prayer sheet). Then, call my Google voice number and chant it for me. MAZEL TOV on all you've accomplished this year. I'm so proud of you!! See you next week for our final celebration.

 Happy Spring Break!! There is no class the week of April 10th or April 17th. I will see you again the week of April 24th! At some point over break, don't forget to call my Google Voice Number  (202) 810-2816  and leave me a voicemail of you chanting the ENTIRE blessing before the Torah.  THANK YOU!

Go 5th Graders! You ROCK!!! This week, we learned lines 3 and 4 of the Torah Blessings "Before". Only 1 line left! For homework, please practice these lines, as well as lines 1 and 2. Then, call my Google Voice number, and CHANT lines 1-4 for me. If you need an electronic copy of the prayer, click here ! If you need help, reach out! I'm here. YOU'VE GOT THIS! See you next week.

5th Graders!!! This week, you OFFICIALLY started your learning of Hebrew prayers. Oh, how far we've come! We looked for sight words throughout the Torah Blessings, and learned lines 1 and 2 of the blessing before the Torah. For homework, you should practice CHANTING those lines again, and then call my Google Voice Number (202) 810-2816, and chant it for me! Don't forget to tell me a joke :) There are only 4 more weeks left of Chug Ivrit! You're already rockstars, and I can't wait to see what else you can accomplish in this time. See you next week!

 Hey 5th Graders! Next week is our LAST week of Alef Bet Quest lessons - we're so close! I had so much fun with you this week playing games and pushing through TWO lessons. I've said it before: you're seriously rockstars. For homework this week, you should think about the sound this week that YOU think you need the MOST practice with. Pick an "I Can Read Hebrew!" section from 79, 83, or 84 based on the sound you'd like to practice. Call my Google Voicemail and just let me know which 3 lines you'll be reading! Don't forget to tell me a joke :) Looking forward to seeing you next week. Let's celebrate completing the Alef Bet!!

 Hey 5th Graders! As a reminder, there is no TSRS next week (Sunday February 20th through Thursday February 24th). I look forward to seeing you again in March!! This week, we learned the letter Pay, and we also learned how to make the vowel sound "eye". For homework, you should practice reading (out loud!) lines 1-6 on page 70 in your book. Then, call my Google Voice Number and read lines 4-6. Don't forget to tell me a joke :) See you soon!

 Hey 5th Graders! This week, we learned the letters CHaf and CHet. We did a challenge where  you tried to spell out movie titles using Hebrew letters! This is HARD, and you did AWESOME!!! You should be so proud of yourselves :) For homework this week, practice lines 1-6 on pages 65 in your book. Then, call my Google Voice Number and read lines 4-6 out loud for me. Don't forget to tell me a joke! Yours may be featured as the JOKE OF THE WEEK! Keep up the great work. See you soon.
