Bibi is helping us to introduce some Hebrew as part of our daily routines...
We ask friends and teachers to pass the water- Mayyim -מיים , Juice- Meetz- מיץ
then saying please- B'va-ka-sha-בבקשה , and thank you- Todah Rabah-תודה רבה
Some of us choose to greet our friends in the morning circle by saying Boker Tov- Good morning- בוקר טוב . We are also counting in Hebrew as well... 1.אחת-Achat- ,2.שתיים Shtyim,3 שלוש . Shalosh ,ארבע 4. Arbah , 5.חמש Chamesh ....
When we asked the kids if they know how do we say apple in Hebrew, Sadie responded:
You should go and ask Bibi, she will know...
The children are having fun speaking Hebrew and will learn more as the year goes on.
We are learning Hebrew songs too! And the latest one is for Simchat Torah: Torah Torah Torah Tziva Lanu Moshe... Torah Torah......
