IN THE BEGINNING

Thank you to the Kitah Dalet students who participated in Fall Fix-Up.  Although the workload was light, we did enjoy being spending some time together on a beautiful Sunday morning, and we helped make a difference for someone in our community.

We officially began our Torah Study program this week, and students practiced their Chumash navigation skills.   Students participated in a Torah Treasure Hunt and they were quite successful in locating some of the more recognizable passages in our Torah.  We found the Shema and searched for the commandment to eat matzah.  Some students found the commandment to observe kashrut, and others found the promise from GOD in Parsha Noah.  

These skills came in quite handy when we began to dive deep into the story of Creation on Tuesday afternoon.  Students read the beginning of the text, illustrated the six days of Creation and learned GOD saw all that GOD created as good.  However, there was one thing GOD created where HE failed to praise HIS work, but instead blessed it.  Next week, we will dissect these passages and continue to discover the many twists and turns in our Torah.
