August, 2011
Dear
Parents,
I
hope this letter finds you enjoying great summer moments with your family
and friends. Here at Chabad Hebrew School (CHS) we are gearing up for a
great year of learning in a fun and encouraging environment, G-d willing.
We are excited to notify you that we are under contract to purchase the
4,500 square foot facility at 1300
An
exciting innovation we will be introducing this year is the concept of a
school theme, which we hope will generate school spirit and enthusiasm.
This year, our theme is Jewish Gems, most apropos as your children really
are treasures. The group names, reflecting this theme, will be Diamond
Daveners, Kosher Coins and Pushka Pearls, as opposed to our usual Alef,
Bet and Gimmel groups.
We
are also looking forward to the prospect of starting a new class at CHS
this fall. This incoming Diamond Davener Group (ages5-7) will be getting a
first taste of Jewish learning and experiences through a holistic medium
which will include prayers and accompanying songs and Alef-Bet letter
recognition with corresponding Jewish characters and concepts.
Our
Kosher Coins (ages 8-9) and Pushka Pearls (ages 10-12) group will begin
their day with the Aleph-Champ
Program, our Hebrew reading curriculum, with various new motivational
incentives. For those of you who are new this year, the Aleph-Champ
Program is based on the martial arts motivational philosophy of color
coded levels and testing. The program has provided Chabad Hebrew school
students around the globe the opportunity to improve their Hebrew reading
ability in an encouraging and exciting atmosphere. The
Aleph Champ Program has proven to be a great success in numerous
Hebrew Schools thus far. In the program the Hebrew alphabet, as well as
the vowels and word formations, are divided into 10 colored coded levels.
The students start out as “White
Aleph Champs,” working their way up the colors of the rainbow to be
a “Black Aleph Champ” like their teachers. Many of our students
have made great strides with this program. And the majority of our
graduates are in the final stages of the program and are reading
beautifully.
Following
the Alef-Champ Program, the Bet & Gimmel groups will proceed on to the
Davening (praying) part of their morning, which includes age appropriate
prayers and songs. The final
and largest component of their schedule is focused on thematic Jewish
content. This year, the Bet group will continue studying the Jewish Home
curriculum, exploring various relevant Jewish concepts through the
lens of the rooms of the home.
For
their thematic Jewish content component, the Gimmel group will be
following a “Jewish Heroes” curriculum. This unit will focus on both
well known and lesser known characters throughout the Bible in a mature
format.
Please
return the following registration form with a $75 deposit by Sunday,
August 22, so that we can ensure we have all the appropriate materials
for your child. The first day of
This
packet also includes a Hebrew School 2011-2012/5772 calendar, and a
postage-paid return envelope.

always, if you have any questions please contact me at alileverton@comcast.net
