A Message from Rabbi Krauss |
Dear Parents,
Between now and Lag B'Omer time we will be developing and integrating the Theme of the Year: מדור לדור into our curriculum, just as we successfully have over the past two years for Israel at 60 and Jewish Communities Around the World. Some of our programs for this year's theme have already begun, as you will read below, some are scheduled to happen, and some are in development. As we have in the past, we once again welcome your suggestions and input. Grandparents are invited to reach out to us as well.
We look forward to a productive day on Sunday at Parent-Teacher conferences and to partnering with you in the education of your children.
Shabbat Shalom,

*מדור לדור*
After two successful years of incorporating a Theme of the Year into our curriculum and experiential learning, we are excited to announce this year's Theme of the Year, M'Dor L'Dor, or From Generation to Generation. The administration and staff are building and creating the programming for M'Dor L'Dor and we are looking forward to events in each grade over the upcoming months. Please be in touch with us with your feedback and suggestions for events within this theme.
The ELC has already begun inviting grandparents into the classroom. For example, N-7 has been adding slowly and surely to their daily tefillah. Most recently the class has been speaking about the meaning of each verse of Shema and have created meaningful hand motions to accompany this tefillah. When they arrived at the segment of Shema that relates to tefillin, the morot thought the children would best learn about tefillin by experiencing tefillin. Gabriel Raskas' zaidy and Natanel Jason's grandpa visited N-7 to give the young students an opportunity to try on tefillin, to see how it is made, and to learn that the straps create different letters of Hashem's name.
Also in conjunction with M'Dor L'Dor, N-8 is working on a Shabbat unit that involves parents and grandparents. On Thursday mornings grandparents have been visiting the classroom to prepare a favorite recipe for Friday's Shabbat party. After each child has their special visitor  (s) come to N-8, all of the recipes will be compiled into a Shabbat Cookbook. The families are also depicting their family tree. When all the family trees are completed, they will be used to create a wall-hanging, which will be donated to SAR Academy.
Grandparents and older generations will be welcome, as in years past, to the First Grade Siddur play, Second Grade Chumash Play, Third Grade Rashi Breakfast, Fourth Grade Navi Play, and Fifth Grade Intergenerational Day. New this year, we will invite guests to a Sixth Grade program called Grandparents: Tying the Generations, a Seventh Grade pre-Purim program, and an Eighth Grade co-learning program. More rich, engaging programs are soon to come!

| Our E2K Leads The Way! |
On Thursday, November 19th, the seventh grade Science E2K class competed with schools across the US, Israel, and India in a virtual Science Competition organized and moderated in Israel. The students watched the questions appear on the SMARTBoard and listened to the moderators read each question and explanation aloud. The virtual quiz led the students through the world of microbes. All students sat at their tables with blank paper and pencils to help figure out the answers. They had a vocabulary sheet given by the moderators and supplies for a lab-based question. One student sat at the computer with a microphone waiting to be called on to answer a question, to ask a question, or to offer feedback.
As the competition began, the students' excitement climbed. They got the first answer correct, and the whole room erupted in cheers. They listened to solutions and explanations, as Dr. Fine reinforced the explanation in her own words. In answering a question, the students suggested answers and talked out why they thought their answer was correct, until the class decided together which response to give.
SAR got 16 out of 18 answers correct. In the end, there was a tie for third place and a tie for second place. Third place went to schools in Israel and India. Second place went to Westchester/Fairfield and Gittelman. SAR didn't think they would win. Then they heard the announcement: "And first place goes to . . . . .SAR Academy!" There was so much cheering we couldn't even hear the moderators say "Academy". Kol HaKavod to our seventh grade E2K students and their teacher Dr. Fine!

*Midor L'dor*
 As we begin reading Parshat Toldot we read the words "V'eileh toldot Yitzchak,Yitzchak ben Avraham, Avraham holid et Yitzchak". And these are the generations of Yitzchak, Yitzchak the son of Avraham, Avraham gave birth to Yitzchak. There are many commentaries on these words, but whichever we look at we can agree that genealogy is important in the Torah and that parents' lives are often measured by their children.
As I have begun my twenty sixth year of teaching in S.A.R. many thoughts run through my mind which all connect to the theme of parents/teachers seeing the fruits of their labor through their children/students. In recent years I have had the distinct pleasure of beginning to teach the next generation - the children of the once preschoolers that I taught. I feel a unique connection to the grandparents that now enter my classroom and am exhilarated by the continuity I am experiencing firsthand. Having a married daughter this all makes sense to me.
It says in Kohelet(1:4): Dor holech v'dor bah vhaaretz l'olam omedet. A generation comes and a generation goes, but the world stands forever. In Kohelet it also says chut hameshulash lo bmheirah ynatek(4:12). A three-twined string will never break. Our thrice twisted string consists of our wonderful students, parents, and S.A.R., the school of which I am so fortunate to be a part.
Many changes have occurred in S.A.R. over the past two and a half decades, but the beauty and commitment of ahavat Yisrael (love of Israel), ahavat habriyot (love of mankind), and ahavat haTorah (love of the Torah) remain constant.
I have been fortunate enough to dance at some of my student's weddings, attend many bar and bat mitzvot, and to be a part of so many lives. S.A.R. has seen me through the beginning of my teaching career, my marriage to my wonderful husband, and the education of my own six children. Now I am lucky enough to have a child in my class whose great-parents and I had together enjoyed an extremely meaningful relationship.
This theme of Midor L'dor is a very special theme. As I teach the children in my classroom the bracha of "magen Avraham" in the Shmoneh Esrei, after just recently teaching them in Parshat Lech Lecha that Hakadosh Baruch Hu tells Avraham that he will be a blessing, I recall calling my children who live in Eretz Yisrael to give them their traditional "overseas" pre-Shabbat bracha. While doing so I heard my call waiting and saw that it was my father -sheyichyeh l'orech yamim tovim - calling to give me that very same bracha.
I look forward to this new generation of beautiful neshamot, and who knows? Before you know it, they too will G-d willing be giving brachot to their children.

| Thinking About Children |
One of the many qualities I appreciate at SAR is the school's focus on cooperation and teamwork. Collaboration is a mainstay of each grade-wide teaching team and a valued instructional technique. It is often used with students to facilitate their academic and interpersonal growth.
Another crucial area in which we emphasize teamwork is the parent-student-teacher partnership. It is this relationship that brings together the all important knowledge that parents have of their child with the observations and understanding of that student by the educator. By bringing together parents and teachers we can share information, work together and help each and every one of our children grow and learn. The results will be a successful and fulfilling academic year.
Click here to link to: "Thinking Children" a newsletter of the Learning Resource Network. This edition has a wonderful article written by former SAR School Psychologist Marsha Winokur (z"l) on the crucial parent-school partnership. This is a valuable article to read before Parent-Teacher Conferences. There are also several informative articles on supporting your child's academic growth that you may want to look at.

It's That 'KIND' Of Week . . . |

*Israel Guide Dog Center For The Blind*
 This past week, fifth graders and kindergartners meet an Israeli man, Guy and his beautiful black Labrador, Turner. They are here visiting in America representing the Israel Guide Dog Center For The Blind, an organization whose mission is to improve the quality of life of blind people through the faithful assistance of guide dogs. Our students learned about the work of this organization and the way Guy, any many other blind people, benefit from having seeing-eye dogs. "Turner," as Guy told the children, "is my best friend. It's very good in life when you have a best friend who helps you. He helps me to navigate the world and helps me be part of society, and I help him by giving him care and friendship and love."
Talia Askowitz, 6X, and her mom Hudi were liaisons for bringing this organization to our school. For Talia's Bat Mitzvah project she created a calendar. Each month of the calendar features photographs and interviews Talia took over four days, while in Israel, of blind people who graduated from the Israel Guide Dog Center for the Blind. "This place," she explained, "breeds the dogs and sends them out to people for a year to develop social skills. The dogs then come back to the center to be tested to see if they are suitable for the  job. These dogs have to be calm around cats," Talia said, "because there are lots of cats in Israel and that could be harmful for people that depend on the dogs."
The children asked Guy many questions such as: What do you see? Is it black? Does Turner know words? Does he understand Hebrew and English? (Just Hebrew!) Do you play sports?
Guy patiently answered every question and then concluded the fifth grade gathering by telling them: "G-d created all creatures. G-d created dogs. G-d created me. But I think there is something special about Turner. I think he is an angel and I feel very lucky to spend my life walking beside an angel."

דבר תורה |
 By: Avital Kobrin
Grade: K-2
Rivka was pregnant and felt lots of kicking in her stomach. She had twins. Their names were Yaakov and Esav. Esav was the first baby to come out - Yaakov was holding on to his heel. Esav had rough, red skin like a red pepper. Yaakov's skin was very light and smooth, very smooth. Esav grew up to be a rough hunter; Yaakov loved to learn Torah. Esav took very good care of his daddy, Yitzchak. He was also very hungry and cold when he got home. One day, when Esav came home, Yaakov was making soup in the kitchen. Esav said, "Hello everybody! I'm home; I'm hungry." Yaakov said, "Hi Esav, how are you doing? I was just making soup." Esav said, "Give me the soup." Yaakov said I'm kind of going to sell it to you - I want to have the beracha of the oldest." Esav said, "Okay, just give me the soup."
From this we learn to think before you do something and think about what is really important: Esav thought about being hungry and Yaakov thought about the beracha.
Shabbat Shalom!

WESTCHESTER JEWISH CENTER ANNOUNCES ART EXHIBITION ON IMMIGRANT LIFE IN AMERICA DURING THE DEPRESSION
"New World Challenges: Jewish life in America in the 1930s," an exhibition of approximately 30 works on paper, tells the story of the immigrants' struggle to assimilate in a new country and culture while upholding the traditional Jewish values instilled in them over generations in Europe. On loan from the Hebrew Union College Museum, the works by Depression-era artists--originally owned by the collector Sigmund Balka--chronicle and interpret the harsh, though sometimes rewarding, challenges of the merchant and working class, particularly in New York. An underlying message in the works is the common thread of faith in a society more sensitive to Tikkun Olam, the repair of the world.
