Keep it Up In October, we earned $ in Giant A+ Bonus Bucks. That s $ more than in October, If you haven t signed us up yet, there s still plenty of time to do so. Don t forget to cut out and send in those Box Tops for Education coupons. We make hundreds of dollars yearly from them. What s Happening? 1G (A.M.) and 1B (P.M.) went to the National Zoo yesterday (1G- P.M. are going next Thursday) for an interactive, hands-on program called How Do You Zoo. The kids really got into and learned a lot from the four stations: Veterinarians, Commissary Stewards (in charge of food for the animals), Zookeepers, and Researchers. Fortunately, this was indoors, so it was unaffected by the precipitation. 6B is getting ready for receiving the Torah in Parashas Yisro. Among the prerequisites: unity, responsibility for each other, not being preoccupied with physical needs. 3G are watching Eliezer negotiate with Rivkah Imeinu s family to allow her to travel to and marry Yitzchak Avinu. They saw that Lavan did not follow the Halacha of not interrupting or talking before his father. They have also begun scientific investigations into force and motion by using the scientific method and continued working on personal narratives. 3B completed Chayei Sarah and enjoyed a fun-filled, thorough review of the Parasha. They had a great time rolling toy trucks
4 around the gym using various types and strengths of force and have really, really mastered subtracting across zeroes (regrouping with 3 digits). They are quick and accurate. I was really impressed even though one young man declined when I challenged him to a contest. KB/G made lotto and bingo games to review Aleph Bais letters, really know their Chayei Sarah details, acted out stories using magnetized story characters, and are getting ordinal # s in order. 1G/G played prefix tic-tac-toe, are bringing home a project depicting the special features of the tents of Rivkah Imeinu and Sarah Imeinu, dissected a pumpkin and estimated the number of seeds it had, and planted pumpkin seeds. 1B learned five Hebrew prefixes, are resting up from learning the rules of Sh va Nach, made books on the life cycle of pumpkins, really got into!!! exclamation marks!!!, and discussed how animals take care of their babies. 2B/G experimented to find out why duck feathers are waterproof (are they sprayed with repellent?) and are experiencing the joy of comparing numbers:>,<,=. 2G learned about and memorized via song the seven Noachide Mitzvos. 2B made rainbow magnets containing with the Beracha on the rainbow. This was after learning, in Parashas Noach, about HaShem s special sign to us. 4B learned, in Mishnah, about openings, closings, and lengths of Berachos and learned that Yosef HaTzaddik s success was largely due to his constant references to HaShem in all He did. They ve continued with their study of the Chesapeake, the water cycle, and salinity and finished reading Titanic (not the movie version). 4G are fascinated by Pirkei Avos and their introduction to Navi, compared and contrasted two stories by the same author, reviewed marsh metaphors, tried out mental math strategies, and wrote persuasive essays. 5B have covered, in Mishnah, the items necessary for writing Sifrei Torah and Megillos. They ve also thoroughly covered the Eastern states and their capitals. 5G illustrated the recurring cycle of Sefer Shofetim now they get to see it repeating itself. They ve seen the greatness of Aharon HaCohen and his reward for rejoicing at Moshe Rebbeinu s position. They are preparing for the multiple parts/projects of their study of Colonies and their upcoming Colonial Day. They ve become quite adept in using both similes and metaphors. In P.E., all classes have perfected their soccer dribbling, shooting, and kicking skills. 6B/G learned, in Shiras Chana in Navi, about ups and downs in life, why they happen, and Who causes them. They ve explored plate tectonics and comparing, ordering, and rounding of # s. Good Shabbos! Sincerely, Rabbi Yitzchak Charner Headmaster

6 בס "ד ערב שבת קודש פרשת חיי שרה November 13, 2009 Classroom Close-ups Volume VI, Issue 6 Mrs. Sharona Katz - 5G Judaic Studies A very rich man, afraid that his wealth would be lost in the turmoil of war, split his fortune into many parts and carefully hid each one in a different hiding place in and around his house. Unfortunately, he was called away suddenly, before informing his family of the whereabouts of his treasure. His son was sitting alone one day, counting his last few coins. He accidentally dropped one, and, as it rolled away, he scrambled after it. He searched and searched and finally pulled up one of the floorboards to find it. Imagine his excitement when he found, under the floor, not one coin, but 200! This discovery prompted him to put all of his efforts into searching every corner of the house, uncovering more and more of the treasure his father had hidden. The Dubno Maggid used the above parable to describe a person s path through life. People constantly strive to improve themselves and come close to Hashem, and they find untold treasures along the way. The parable can be applied as well to learning and to the treasures we uncover each day as we strengthen our skills and delve into the Torah. Our Sages say that the Torah, like a hidden treasure, is poor in one place and rich in another. The riches of Torah must therefore be searched out and found. In Kittah Hay, we have the privilege of learning the first half of Sefer Sh mos. The students come to class knowing the basic story - the slavery in Egypt, the birth of Moshe Rabbeinu, the ten plagues, leaving Egypt. In class, however, we constantly uncover new understandings and meanings that originate from the text that we study. Using the toolbox that we have assembled over the years and to which we continue to add daily -- including knowledge of grammar, vocabulary, sentence structure and ta amei hamikra ( trop ) -- we study the text to understand its meaning, and we relate its lessons to our daily lives. Our most recent excursion into the world of Torah study took us to Moshe Rabbeinu at the burning bush. As Hashem persuades Moshe to go down to Egypt to rescue the Jewish people, the students carefully read, asking questions about the wording (Why is the word vayomer - he said - used twice in the same pasuk?); the context (Why was Moshe in the wilderness? Why did Hashem speak to Moshe from a bush and not a majestic tree?); and lessons for living (From where do we see the humility of Moshe? What is Hashem s message to him - and to all of us?). We use our tools -- Rashi and other m forshim, midrashim, our knowledge of grammar, vocabulary etc. -- to help us ask and answer these questions. To promote retention of vocabulary, our class learned a game through which we reinforced the meanings of words ( zakan / beard, which we learned in chumash in the form of zaken, elder; and zanav / tail, learned in connection with the tail of the snake into which Moshe s staff had turned); number concepts; and possessive pronouns. These learning opportunities are found across the curriculum, as familiar words and grammar constructs are seen again and again in Navi, Ivrit, Pirkei Avos, and our Shomrei Halashon program. Students are encouraged to teach the class, sharing stories of their own experiences to explain or clarify a particular point and to integrate the lessons that we learn into their own experiences and lives. Episodes are illustrated and then put into proper order, words are split and pronouns identified, worksheets are color coded to indicate who is speaking in each pasuk -- all to bring us greater understanding of the text, to make this amazing gift of Torah a part of our lives. Treasures abound in our study -- it s just a matter of looking for them. The efforts we expend are a reward in themselves, as we uncover the wonders of Torah learning and build our skills for the future.

Hunger vs. Appetite Don t Get Your Signals Crossed. Torah thought on health and wellness: The Rambam in Hilchos Deios (4.1) is quite clear: Keeping our bodies healthy is a spiritual practice of going in the way of HaShem, for it is impossible to know and understand the will of HaShem if one is sick. Therefore, we must distance ourselves from any activity that will be harmful to our bodies, and we must accustom ourselves to healthy and appropriate conduct. The first proper behavior he lists is that we should only - לעולם לא יאכל אדם אלא כשהוא רעב hungry eat if we are and that we should not eat until our stomachs feel full, but rather we should stop when we feel 3/4 satisfied לעולם לא יאכל עד שתתמלא כריסו אלא יפחות כמו רביע משבעתו (4.2). Hunger (רעב) exists to tell us that our body needs nourishment, says the Rambam. But it s not our hunger that tells us to keep on eating after we should stop. It s our appetite. התאוה appetite The Ohr Gedalyahu writes that our should not govern our consumption, as much as אכילה we might feel like eating more. Our appetite is a means toward an end, serving the purpose of giving us pleasure while properly nourishing our bodies. If we use it in the inverse, he says, allowing our desire to dictate how much we eat and what kind of foods to digest instead of consuming the right type of foods in the appropriate amounts that our bodies need for optimal health we have truly mistaken the means for the ends. This is perhaps the greatest battle many of us face being unable to distinguish between our hunger and our appetite. And this conflict, about which our Rabbis have elucidated over the past millennia, has been identified recently by the scientific community in its ongoing battle against the growing epidemic of weight gain and obesity. All the food we eat is digested into glucose and distributed through the blood to fuel, repair and synthesize the millions of cells in our body. When we eat the proper foods in the appropriate amounts, we nourish our cells with essential nutrients that allow us to survive and thrive. Quite simply, without eating we would die. The hypothalamus, the part of our brain that monitors glucose levels in our blood, sends a signal to the cortex of the brain when our body s cells are being deprived of fuel. This is the involuntary sensation of hunger. However, our interpretation and response to that feeling of hunger is governed by a voluntary action called our appetite. Sometimes our appetite gets creative and confuses a variety of feelings unrelated to hunger into a perceived need for food. The signals in our brain get crossed. We eat to alleviate stress or for psychological comfort (emotional eating). We eat because we re bored or tired or to reward ourselves when we re happy. We think we re hungry when we re really just striving to satisfy our appetite. Learning to distinguish between hunger and appetite is a key component toward developing a healthy relationship with food and fulfilling the Rambam s dictate of going in the way of HaShem..שבת Good SWITCHH is a coalition of Jewish Day Schools committed to effecting real and lasting changes toward our approach to eating and nutrition. The Wellness Initiative uses a Torah educational approach combined with practical tools and the latest news and information to inform and empower parents, teachers and students about the obligation to properly care for our bodies by developing and enjoying healthy eating habits.

10 News, information and practical advice: ONE MORE POTATO CHIP by Bracha Goetz One more potato chip. One more potato chip. After this, no more will pass between my lips. I've got to have it. Can't live without it. I will take only one more unnoticeable bit. "I'd like a thin slice, please."... "Another small slice please."... After this one, I surely will feel at ease. I really need it now. I deeply need it now. One more scoop. I'll be contented as a cow. I'll take one tiny bite. O.K., just one more bite. Is there a cure for an insatiable appetite? One chocolate chip cookie. Two chocolate chip cookies. I could finish up the box when no one is looking. I've got this hunger. It's a strange hunger. When the last piece of cake is gone, it's even stronger! While gobbling up some food, Then gobbling up more food, Why, I am in just the most delightful mood. But when it's over, Oh, when it's over, The emptiness I tried to bury is uncovered. Hashem, You placed within me This deep spiritual hole. It's not my stomach that was hungry. What was starving was my soul! Bracha Goetz is the author of 10 children's books, including Aliza in MitzvahLand, What Do You See at Home? and The Invisible Book. To enjoy Bracha's presentations for both women and children, you're welcome to bgoetzster@gmail.com. Awareness of Obesity-Cancer Link Called Alarmingly Low The latest results from a biennial survey of cancer risk awareness shows that only about half of Americans realize that carrying excess body fat places them at significantly higher risk for several cancers. The survey also reveals that although cancer ranks as the nation s #1 health concern, only a small percentage of Americans realize that many cancers are highly preventable. Experts at the American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR), who commissioned the survey, expressed concern today that the latest results show body fatness - a major cause of cancer - still lagging far behind other known risk factors. In light of the fact that excess body fat causes over 100,000 cancer cases each year in the US - cases that could be prevented by staying lean - public awareness of the link remains alarmingly low, said Alice Bender, MS, RD, Nutrition Communications Manager for the American Institute for Cancer Research. It s a message that desperately needs to be heard. An AICR expert report found convincing evidence that excess body fat is a cause of 6 different cancers: colorectal, postmenopausal breast, endometrial, pancreatic, kidney and esophageal. About one-third of the most common cancers could be prevented through diet, physical activity and weight management. SOVEYA provides effective solutions for health, wellness & lasting weight loss.
