Learning about the Torah!

Dear Parents,

The children in Kitah Beis are very busy preparing for our Chumash Party- When the children will receive their first Chumash!

We have been learning in preperation for this special day, how special the torah is and what is written inside. We discussed that the Torah has 5 books, and at our Chumash Party we will receive the first one- Chumash Bereishis!

We were able to look at a mini  Torah and see whats inside and of it and the different garments used to cover it. In addition we all had a chance to feel "klaf"- the special paper used to write a Torah, and the feather the Sofer/Scribe uses to write the holy letters.

The children can not wait to visit the Scribe and see how we writes a real Torah!
