Incredible Music Recording-JH

Posted On ד׳ במרחשון ה׳תשע״ב (November 1, 2011) by Moreh Nachum

Hi Junior High parents and students-

I hope all is well!

I am very excited to post these awesome audio files recorded by Grade 6 and Grade 8 . We discussed and worked on reinterpretation of poetry with music. The students did a great job finding their own sound and bringing Robert Frost to life! I think you are going to love what you hear. THESE KIDS ARE CREATIVE!!

Please allow each file to load before playing.

Enjoy!

Grade 7 audio files will be posted next week…

These are the days…

Posted On ט׳ בתשרי ה׳תשע״ב (October 7, 2011) by Morah Betty

A holy day such as Yom Kippur, can be challenging to explain to very young children.  The JK’s, and SK’s  were taught a song, written by the late Debbie Friedman, with t’nunot. The song is called: These are the days

Lyrics are:

Vs. 1

These are the days, to say we’re  sorry for all the things we’ve done that we could do better

These are the days, to make a promise, to be the best that we can be.

Bridge:       As we grow older, we come to see, we can’t be perfect,

But we can be the best that we can be…

Repeat verse 1

G’mar chatimah tova.
