Year 1 students have been studying the Hebrew letter “Lamed.” The story they have been focusing on is called “G’lidah,” which means ice-cream. In this story, they’ve been introduced to Auntie Leah, whose name starts with the letter “Lamed.”

Auntie Leah’s is bringing “G’lidah” (ice-cream) to the classroom, spreading joy and excitement among the students. However, a twist in the tale occurs when one of the students falls ill, regrettably missing out on her ice cream. Displaying great kindness, Auntie Leah undertakes a touching journey to visit the unwell student’s home and personally deliver her much desired “G’lidah.”

Today, we celebrated the successful conclusion of this unit, coming together in our classroom to share the joyous experience of enjoying ice-cream. The students truly relished this delightful treat.
