Today's quiz and class work.

Shalom Everyone,

Today we had the grammar vocabulary test. For those of you who forgot to study, I gave the list of words in Hebrew.
The class might have a retake of today's test next Tuesday, for some extra points on the final grade of this test.
We also started שוואים today.
Did you know that the Shva under the letter ת in בתיה, is the same as the shva under the letter ר in מרגלית, but different then the shva under the letter ש in שמואל?
Guess why, and get 5 extra points on your test :)

Color code and summarizing techniques

Shalom,

The 7th and 8th grade Hebrew students are working on a research project about Kibbutzim in Israel. A big part of this project, is reading information from different sources, and summarize it. As part of the learning process, I reviewed different research and summarizing techniques with your children. I would like to share with you some of these techniques.

Bellow is the guideline your children followed, working on this project.


Touring Israel- The project step by step. בס"ד



Color code work

1. How to highlight on a word document?
Go to this symbol on your screen
and choose a color.

2. While reading the information online, highlight the info you read by the following color code:
Read through the entire info sheet. The info about a certain topic might be spread over the entire document,

Geographic location- Green

Historic background- Yellow

Current time- Pink

Pictures- Orange (highlight the title you've wrote to the picture, to describe what it is.)

Any other relevant information you want to include- blue

Touring Israel- Project’s checklist

Mark a check next to the steps you've completed:

3. If a high percentage of the residents are immigrants, which countries did they come from?

4. Industry and sources of income-

-What factories/ farming industries are in the place?

- If it not an agricultural settlement, how do most residents make a living?

5. Important sites in the place- entertainment attractions, historic site, national parks, landscape sites.
______________________________________________________________________________

D. Pictures: Mark a check next to the pictures you’ve included:

Touring Israel Project by CTA students בס"ד אדר א' התשע"א,
In this new project , you are going to lead the visitors on a grand tour around Israel. Visitors will be exposed to all kind of settlements such as : Cities, Moshavim, Kibbutzim and Yishuvim.
Your assignment is to do an overall research about the place you chose.Read both in Hebrew and English to allow yourself easier transition into the Hebrew language.
1) Prepare at least a summary of the place you researched. Attach 5-10 photos with subtitles.
2) In your summary include the following topics :
the History of the place:
*where it was established and who established it?
* the main points of interests in this place (cities only)
* Description of the city today: topography citizens, occupation, mayor and unique specifications.
5) If you write about a kibbutz, moshav or any other settlement, draw a chart in which you compare lives in the past and nowadays: differences and similarities.
6 Prepare a Hebrew speech about the place about one page.
7) Build a Styrofoam model in which you represent the city today.
8) Represent your project on a tri- post board. English summary on the left ,Hebrew speech on the right side. Photos with subtitles would be in the middle.
9) 7-8 grades write about Kibbutzim , moshavim and settlements.
9-10 grades about cities or archaeological sites.

Good luck!
