We're Off to an Exciting Start!

Dear Friends of Gefen and Tamar,

We've gotten off to an exciting start of school!

On Tuesday we had Bryce, Gabrielle and Sabrina's uncle, Erich, come in to talk to us about his bike trip across the USA. He showed students his bike, his route and the tent where he slept. He shared lots of amazing stories about run-ins with animals and more. It was pretty cool and very inspirational. See the picture below.

This morning students took two short math assessments. These assessments will help us place students in the correct math groupings for optimal learning.

We also had an extra special Peulat Shabbat today, where Rav-Hazzan showed students how to blow shofrot (shofars). Afterwards, students got a chance to try their hands at it, themselves. Here are some pictures.

Have a wonderful and restful Shabbat and long weekend!

Best,
