| Early Childhood Encounters |
|
Kindergarteners are reading now more than ever! The Early Childhood reading program has started off with a big bang. The Book in a Bag program is a leveled reading program introducing at the earliest levels the sounds of letters with pictures and building and blending words through a more challenging themed book with an emphasis on growing spelling and vocabulary.
"This reading program is terrific. Not only do we have students reading through the pictures and cues but also through building sounds and words on their own," said Mrs. Silver. |

| Shavuos Publication Coming Soon |
|
The elementary students were excited to learn that they have the opportunity to be part of a special Shavuos Publication. Students are invited and encouraged to pick a Dvar Torah, put it together in written form, and edit it and submit it for publication in a Shavuos Booklet being put together by the Boca Raton Synagogue together with other local schools. Students, parents, and teachers will work together to make this opportunity an amazing learning experience for our students. We would like to thank Dr. Jay Keehn for help coordinating the Shavuos Publication. |
