Dear Viewer,

Welcome to a sampling of just some of the original and inventive curriculum


that I have designed and used successfully over my 18 years of being
involved in Jewish Education.
While many teachers have often borrowed, copied or downloaded their
materials, I have opted to painstakingly design most of my own materials.
While others imitate, I choose to innovate.
From these samples, I am sure that youll see the care, time and
proficiency that is put into these materials to make learning enjoyable and
exciting.
This is what I am all about, passionate about making learning great.
Sincerely,
R. Shmuel Goldstein

Hebrew
Syllabication
By R. Shmuel Goldstein 2002
Since Hebrew is a wonderfully constructed language, based on a phonetic system, its
beauty becomes distinguished from that of most other languages. Therefore, learning how to re
words in Hebrew becomes a simple process of dividing words into syllables. The purpose of
dividing Hebrew words is so that one may read these words with greater accuracy and ease.

E
Initially, let us familiarize ourselves with two types of Hebrew syllables. The first one is called
an, Open Syllable. This is when the mouth is left open at the end of a syllable, as shown
below in example #1. The second one is called a , Closed Syllable. This is when a letter

PL
blends into a consonant letter, thereby leaving the mouth closed. This is shown in example #

In addition to the above, we need to keep in mind the rules of when a shvah (eg. ) makes a
sound, and when it doesnt.. Learning about the resting and going shvah does take time an
practice but once these key concepts are mastered, dividing Hebrew words really becomes quit
simple.
M
Below, I will give 8 examples of how Hebrew words can be divided simply, using two
types of dividing lines. The first type of line is a plain vertical line like this |. The second type
line is for quick sounding syllables, such as letters with a chataph vowel or a going shvah.
These quick sounding syllables move rapidly to the next syllable much like in music when an
SA

eighth note will quickly move to a quarter note. This line is characterized as a dotted vertical l
like this .

Lets now look at the 8 examples of how Hebrew words can be divided. Explanations will foll

|||
the example.

This simple word has been divided into three open type syllables. An additional way to
ascertain and practice how many syllables that a word may have is to clap, tap, or count using
ones fingers. As is well known in education, the more modalities that are used in the learning
process, the better.
L.T.S.
Think
Look  Say
When it comes to reading, the above mentioned steps are the cognitive
processes needed for the teacher or facilitator in which to guide the
student. The length of the lines below indicate the amount of time that
is required for reading to be effective.

E
1) LOOK

2) THINK
PL
M
3) Say
SA

This means, that looking requires a careful glance using little time, but
the thinking process necessitates the longest amount of time. Saying
the word should take the shortest amount of time. The lengths of time
needed for looking and for thinking will then shorten as the student
progresses in fluency. The student should be reminded to first look at
the word then think about the sounds and thereafter say the word in
the same speed that they would normally say their own name.

When an Abba nikuda comes before a Baby Shvah, it will wake it up and the shva will be going, meaning it will make a sound.
If an Imma nikuda comes before a Baby Shvah it will put it to sleep and the shva will be resting and not make a sound.

Note : There two exceptions to this rule which would be on the Hebrew words
z" and z" where the shvah would be resting i.e. silent.

Whenever there is a shvah at the end of a word,

i.e. The shvah does not make any sound and is silent.
a
Whenever a shvah comes under one of the letters of
(meaning eye-patch) the shvah will always be
z
1
M
resting.
Note : This rule is true even if the nikudah before it is a tnuah gdolah, or has a meseg
before it, as seen in the example. None of these letters, mentioned in this rule, will ever be
in the beginning of a word with a Shvah.
SA
Whenever there is a shvah under the first of two letters
1 that are the same, the shva will always be going.
This does not apply to letters that come from the same part of the mouth such as a and a z ,

as the original pronounciation of each letter is different.

1 a-A When there are two shvahs in the middle of a word, the ^"
first one will always be resting.

A big tree stands tall and high Says the angel, Honestly
Branches reaching for the sky Im just a messenger as plain can be
A small leaf without a sound The Creator of me and you
Falls gently to the ground

A Tzaddik who is passing by


q He told me what to do

Creator of the galaxy o


Stops and asks the leaf, Why? Please oh please do explain to me
What made you fall from overhead Why a leaf is shaken free
And lie down here instead? And has fallen from his tree

Says the leaf, Dont ask me The Creator tells his special plan

E
Im not in charge, cant you see And He shares it with this holy man
The branch I was on gave a sudden sway Take the leaf in your hand
And on this ground I lay And then youll understand

Branch oh branch youre the boss


Why did you give the leaf a toss PLx See the worm lying there m
He was suffering, it was so unfair
When you gave a sudden sway He was down underneath the tree
It fell down right away Breathing heavily
The sun was hot, there was so much heat
Says the branch, Dont ask me He prayed to HaShem down from the street
M
Im not in charge, cant you see Creator oh Creator, please help me
The wind gave a sudden blow The sun is burning me!
And there it fell down below

Wind oh wind youre in charge

So I told the angel right away
To send the wind along its way

Explain to me And the branch began to sway


What I can not see And the small leaf flew away
Why did you give a sudden blow And His plan was complete
And made the leaf fall below Protecting the worm from the heat

Says the wind, who gave a blow And the worm so tiny and small
Im not in charge, dont you know? Fell asleep after all

My angel told me what to do
And with all my might I blew.

Angel oh angel from high above


Please explain to me

*kI 
k?l 
R. Shmuel Goldstein

For one to use an ( citron), one must make sure that it is -


complete, and without any marks that would make it unusable.
There are also four special ideas in Judaism that also must be
complete and whole. They are:

1) - Belief in HaShem

E
The Rambam starts each one of his 13 main parts of belief with the
words of  -I believe with complete faith...
Having complete faith in HaShem allows a Jews relationship with Him to

PL
continue to grow and stay strong.

2) - Tshuva (Returning completely to HaShem)


Every day in our prayers we ask HaShem to help us return to Him
completely-   .
Returning halfway home does not compare with really being home.
M
3) '- Healing
If you are only healed a little bit, you are still considered sick. That is
why when we see someone who is sick we should always wish them a
' - a complete healing.
SA

4) - Redemption (Getting out of Golus !!!)


Boruch HaShem, the Jewish people have been rescued many times
from danger. Nevertheless, we still hope, desire, and even demand to be
taken out of our present exile with the  - The Complete
Redemption. May we all experience this real soon!

The Hebrew word itself hints to all of these four ideas listed above.
The letter is for the Hebrew word--------

R. Shmuel Goldstein 10 k To the tune of,
"Oh my Darlin, Clementine"

(Chorus) 10 Ten , Paraoh why did you say no


When HaShem asked you, to let the Jewish people get up and go

First came , which was blood no drinking water anywhere

Then , the frogs were jumping in their pockets and in their hair

Third was , the lice were crawling oh vey it itches so

E
Then HaShem sent big wild animals, the fourth makah was

(Chorus)
PL
Fifth was , what a pest all the animals they died

the boils they hurt so much, that all of Paraohs people cried
M
Seventh , fire and hail what a storm who ever saw

Then , all the grasshoppers. Oh HaShem please no more!


SA

(Chorus)

But Paraoh was stubborn, so very stubborn and did not let the people go

So HaShem brought darkness they couldnt even move a toe

Then number ten every oldest would die

Paraoh came running to and take the Jews and go! Good-bye!!!

Just Imagine...
 and the people were in the desert, but what was he going to do with
them? They had to be fed, and feeding 2 or 3 million people requires a lot of
food. According to the Quarter-Master General in the Army, it is reported that
 would have to have had 1500 tons of food each day. Do you know that to
bring that much food each day, two large freight trains, each a mile long,
would be needed! Besides you must remember, that they were out in the desert,
so they would have to have firewood to use in cooking the food. This would take

E
4000 tons of wood and a few more freight trains, each a mile long, just for one
day! And just think, they were 40 years in the desert!

PL
And oh yes! They would have to have water. If they only had enough to drink
and wash a few dishes, it would take 11 million gallons each day, and a freight
train with tank cars, 1800 miles long, just to bring water! That is the distance
from Miami past Montreal-Canada!!!
M
And then another thing! They had to get across the  at night! Now, if
they went on a narrow path, two lines, the line would be 800 miles long and
would require 35 days and nights to get through (They travelled in a half-circle).
SA

So, there had to be a space in the , 3 miles wide so that they could walk
5000 people side by side to get over in one night. But then, there is another
problem. Each time they camped at the end of the day, a camp-ground almost
the size of Rhode Island was required, or a total of 750 square miles long...think
of South Florida only filled with Jews from Miami past West Palm Beach and
youll get the idea.

Do you think  figured all this out before he left Egypt? I dont think so! You
see,  believed in HaShem. HaShem took care of these things for him. Now
if HaShem can take care of a whole nation of 2-3 million do you think He has
any problem taking care of us?

Four Parshiyos & Purim
We can also erase the bad k within us which   represents:
a) The numerical value of   is 240 which equals  . The +  puts doubts in our
mind about Hashem and his *kI and k.
b) Regarding   the l E says K-52/ wK. The word K2/ K means to cool off.
  cools off our excitement in serving Hashem.


10) On P (the day before .l) there is a fast day which is called II .

11) The reason we fast on II is because P was the day of +,when the
enemies of *x5 were allowed to kill QK) them. The Jews fasted on that day and

E
asked Hashem for mercy. They then went on to be victorious in the battle. We therefore
fast on that day to remind ourselves that in a time of need we too should fast and Daven
to Hashem and surely he will help.

PL
12) It is called II because I was the one who instituted the first fast because of
the +. That was when everyone fasted for three days and nights before I went
to beg for mercy from wkw. (That fast was on  almost a full year before P).
13) The custom of Chabad is to give #w on II before . Others have a
custom to give it before the reading of the .

14) On II, like all other fast days we say the following extra kI::
M
a) k,
b) l,

We also read from the *kI.

16) On P, the day after *x5 were victorious over their enemies, is when we
celebrate .lE.

17) The day after, P, is .lEwlw. I asked w1w for an extra day to kill the
enemies in wlw, so the day after their victory was P. That is when they celebrate
and fulfill all the k of .lE. The same is true for Jews living in walled cities such as
Yerushalayim.

10 Reasons For Milk On Shavuos
1) Moshe, who was taken out of the water on the sixth day of Sivan, did not nurse
from a non-Jewish mother. This was because he was to be the one who would
teach the Torah to the Jewish people.
2) The Jews were worried that perhaps that by drinking or eating milk products the
would be going against the rule of Tearing a limb from a living animal
because it is similar. After Matan Torah they knew it was permissible because
Eretz Yisroel is called the Land of Milk and Honey (Goat milk and date honey)
3) Because, up until that time it was permissible to eat meat that was not shechted properly.
After Matan Torah it was not permissable anymore to eat meat unless it was shechted properly.
As a result there were no kosher pots or pans to use so they could only eat milk products.
4) Another reason similar to the above is after Matan Torah the Jews were hungry and the easiest

E
thing to make was milk products.
5) One of the names of Har Sinai is Har Gavnunim the Cheese mountain.

7) Milk symbolizes humbleness.


PL
6) The color white symbolizes loving kindness

8) One of the parts of the korbonos of Shavuos was the Shtei Lechem Hapanim which hints to
the two meals we eat on Shavuos. One that is milchig and the other, fleishig.

9) The Hebrew word equals (gematria) 40 which hints to the 40 days on the mountain that
M
Moshe spent learning HaShems Torah.
10) The seven weeks of counting the sfirah is similar to the 7 days that it takes for a mothers
milk to come through after a baby is born.
SA

3 Reasons Why We Use Greens On Shavuos


1) To resemble Har Sinai
2) To remind us of the basket of Moshe
3) The answer that the Midrash gives about a moshul of a king who wanted to uproot his garden
because of all the weeds that had grown in it until he saw a rose growing in it and he said for
the sake of this one rose Ill keep the garden.
However nowadays some do not follow this custom due to a gzairah from the Gra due to a
similar practice done by other non-jews in their churches.

SHIVA ASAR B'TAMUZ
WHAT IS SHIVA ASAR B'TAMUZ?

The 17th of Tamuz , (Tuesday, July 6, 2004), is a bad day all around for Jews.

The Talmud, (Tractate Ta'anit 26b, the Mishnah 4:6), lists five tragedies that befell the Jewish
people on Shiva Asar B'Tamuz.

1. It all started way back at Har Sinai when Moshe went up the mountain for forty days.

The Bnei Yisroel panicked when they miscalculated his return by one day. By the time Moshe

E
returned only hours later, he had been replaced by the Eigel Hazahav (Golden Calf)!.

Upon seeing this idol, Moshe dropped the Luchot, the tablets containing the Aseret Hadibrot (the
Ten Commandments) from his hands, breaking them into pieces. ( Shmot 32:19)

PL
2. Despite the Babylonian siege of Yerushalayim, the two daily sacrifices of the Korban Tamid
in the first Bait Hamikdash , were carried out as long as there were sheep to sacrifice.

It was on this date, however, Shiva Asar B'Tamuz, that the Kohanim finally ran out of sheep and
the sacrifices stopped.
M
3. The next year, 3184 (586 BCE), after months of seige by the wicked Nebuchadnezzar's army,
the walls of Yerushalayim were finally breached, a prelude to the destruction of Yerushalayim
and the Bait Hamikdash.

In the time of the second Bait Hamikdash, 3760 ( 70 CE), Titus, the Roman General breached the
SA

walls of the holy city of Yerushalayim leading to the destruction of the Second Bait Hamikdash.

These breaks came after many months during which the city's residents suffered extreme
hardships, sickness and hunger.

4. In the time of the Roman occupation, the wicked heathen Apostomos, captain of the Roman
forces, publicly burned a Torah during the period preceding the destruction of the Second Bait
Hamikdash. Apostomos also placed an idol in the sanctuary.

5. The evil King Menashe placed an idol in the Kodesh Kedoshim, an act of open blasphemy and
desecration. (Melachim II 21:7)

Since these tragedies occurred on Shiva Asar B'Tamuz, our Sages designated the 17th day of
Tamuz as a communal fast day , to be inspired to do Tshuva (repent).
WHAT ELSE HAPPENED ON SHIVA ASAR B'TAMUZ?
Other tragedies befell the Jewish people on the 17th of Tamuz.

In 1239, Pope Gregory IX ordered the confiscation of all manuscripts of the Talmud.

In 1391, more than 4,000 Spanish Jews were killed in Toledo and Jaen, Spain.

In 1559 the Jewish Quarter of Prague was burned and looted.

In 1944, the entire population of the Kovno ghetto was sent to the death camps.

In 1970, Libya ordered the confiscation of all Jewish property.

HOW WE OBSERVE THE DAY?

E
- The fast of Shiva Asar B'Tamuz only starts from the break of dawn and ends at nightfall.
(Consult a reliable Jewish calendar for the times in your area.)

PL
- One who is ill need not fast at all. Pregnant and nursing mothers can observe the fast with
lenience. One should consult with a rabbi whether they are permitted to fast.

- Children below the age of bar or bat mitzva - 13 for boys and 12 for girls, do not fast. (In some
communities, it is customary for children to begin fasting a short time before they become
bar/bat mitzva.)
M
- Those permitted to eat should still refrain from eating meat, luxurious food and drink.

- Special additions to the prayers, ( Selichot, Vayechal and Anenu) and Torah readings, are
added during the day.
SA

-The idea behind the fast is to understand that the events happened because of the sins of our
ancestors, to spend the day meditating on this fact, and realizing that we must do Tshuva
(repent).

THE THREE WEEKS

Shiva Asar B'Tamuz begins the period of the Three Weeks , called Bein Hametzorim, (between
the tragedies), the annual period of national mourning over the destruction of the First and
Second Bait Hamikdash. This year, (5764 - 2004), the Three Weeks begin on July 6, 2004, Shiva
Asar B'Tamuz , and end on July 27, 2004 - with the fast of Tisha B'Av (the ninth day of of Av ),
the saddest day in the Jewish Calendar.

SOME GOOD NEWS


When Moshiach comes (may it be speedily in our time), Shiva Asar B'Tamuz will turn into a day
full of "gladness and cheerful feasts." (Zecharia 8:19 ).

5) During this time, there was once again a famine in Israel. ejmh wanted to leave Israel
to go find food, but Hashem appeared to him and told him that he was not allowed to
leave Israel. Rashi says that this was because ejmh had a special holiness from
the ejmh ,sheg. After being ready to give up his life for Hashem, he was so special
that leaving the Holy Land was not the right thing to do.

6) ejmh could not see well later on in his life. He was not aware of the terrible things
that uag was doing. He called uag in one day and told him that he wanted to give his
blessings to him. uag was thrilled and he went out to get food for ejmh, so that he
could then get the blessings. vecr heard this and she knew she had to do
SOMETHING. She called cegh and told him to disguise himself like uag. cegh took

E
hairy goatskins and covered his arms in them so that he would feel like his brother
uag. cegh snuck into ejmhs room and acted like uag. ejmh gave the blessings to
cegh. As cegh left, uag walked in, and he found out that cegh had outsmarted him

PL
again! WAS HE MAD!!!!!!!!!!! uag wanted to kill cegh , so vecr advised cegh to beat it.
vecr said that if the two ever met up with each other, they would fight until both of
them were dead. In fact this happened! Both cegh and uag died on the same day
(more on that in Parashas Vayechi).

7) cegh ran off to Padan Aram, to the home of Lavan (vecrs brother from last week).
M
Rashi tells us that before he arrived there, cegh stopped to study at the Yeshiva of
Shem and Ever for 14 years.

Gee, this is great

Shabbos starts: _________ Havdala:_________

E
1) This weeks Parsha begins twenty years after the end of Parashas Chayei Sarah.
ejmh and vecr had been married for twenty years (since ejmh was 40) and they had
not had any children. The Parsha tells us that they prayed to Hashem and their

PL
prayers were answered. vecr became pregnant! But there was a terrible problem!
vecr was in terrible pain from the pregnancy. She went to the Yeshiva of Shem and
Ever (where cegh would study for 14 years) to find out what was going on. They told
her that she had twins inside of her. The two babies were fighting with each other
inside of her. In fact, Shem and Ever told her, that when these two children would
grow up, they would continue to fight with each other. How true that was, for the
children of cegh, the Jews, would constantly be fighting with the children of uag, the
M
Romans.

2) When cegh and uag were born, they fought with each other as they were coming out
of vecr. uag came out first, with cegh hanging onto his ankle. In fact, one of the
SA

reasons that cegh got his name was because the root of his name is ceg --- ankle.

3) While children, there was really no difference between uag and cegh. It was not until
their Bar Mitzvah that cegh began to act like a tzaddik and uag began to act like a
rasha (evil person). uag began to sin, the Talmud writes, by doing things like killing
people for their money and saying that there was no G-d.

4) One day, uag was out hunting and hurting people. He came home exhausted, and he
found cegh cooking soup to give to ejmh their father. Give me the soup! uag
demanded. cegh refused to give it away. uag then demanded it again, and cegh
agreed to give it to him if uag would sell his rights as the firstborn to cegh. uag, who
didnt care at all about things like the right to act like a Kohen, or work in the Beit
Hamikdash said Sure! No problem and he signed away his rights. cegh gave him the
soup, and uag gave these special privileges to his brother.

Statement: In this weeks the tells us that blessed the two

E
sons of with the of:  -May they increase like fish

Question: There many other animals that multiply and increase other than
fish. Why did use fish in this blessing instead of a different

Answer:
kind of animal? PL
The answer is through the following story:

Once, when the Romans had made it a law forbidding the learning of
M
Torah, Papus (a Jew) saw Rabbi Akiva teaching Torah and asked him, Arent you afraid
of being caught? Rabbi Akiva answered, There was once a fox who was walking by
the side of a river and saw some fish swimming quickly from side to side. The fox asked.
Why are you running? They replied, We are afraid of the net that people set up to
catch us. The sly fox said, Maybe it would be smarter to come up here on land and
SA

stay with me. The fish then said, If we are afraid of the fishermans nets in the water,
in which we must live, how much more afraid will we be on land, where we will surely
die. Rabbi Akiva explained to Papus, We are like fish and Torah is our water.

This explains why blessed and to be like fish.


He wanted them to always remember, that a Jew without Torah is like a
fish without water.

A Peek At Our Week


Dear Parent(s) of Rabbi Goldsteins 2nd Grade Class,

E
b b e G
Re

PL
This will be, HaShem willing the first of many newsletters that will give you a look at the highlights
of what we have learned in our classroom. There will also be occasional notices at the bottom of
the letter for any upcoming events and/or reminders.
M
dlitz - Prayer
This week in our Tefilah class we heard a great story about Reb Yiddel who called Rabbi
Goldstein a thief . I know what you are thinking, and so was I. Yet, he explained himself by
SA

saying that when I said my bracha-blessing on food that I was eating, to myself instead of outloud
it prevented Reb Yiddel from saying Amen to my blessing. With every Amen we say to a blessing,
we get two mitzvot. WOW!!! We also learned how important it is to for a Jewish boy to wear
Tzitzit. Every four steps a Jewish boy takes when wearing tzitzit he gets another mitzvah. Some of
the reading skills we learned in tefilah were how to pronounce the fast sounding Chataf vowels
such as in the word a wri and the long Kamatz sound O , as in the word dn k gA (notice the
long stem of the Kamatz under the letter Chet). Tal also told us the answer to why we cover our
eyes when we say rn W . She said that we need to concentrate when saying this prayer and when
we cover our eyes it helps. We also heard a story about a baby who couldnt cry because of the
holes in her eyes were blocked. HaShem then made a miracle for the baby and opened her eyes.
We should all be grateful to HaShem for the miracles He does for our bodies every day. We can
show this thanks when we say the bracha ...x vi xW

yneg - Chumash
In Chumash this week we have taken our first quiz on the front letters (prefixes) that will
greatly help with the learning process. We first learned these words to a song the children had
had a great time singing in classwhich were reinforced with flash card games our students played
with afterwards. We have also begun to learn the first part of the PowerWords which are key
words needed for Chumash learning. We did this by learning them with sign language which
greatly helps to memorize them. The students then drew pictures of these words in our new
LamAid learning books. Next week we will prepare learning gematria (when letters of the
Hebrew Alphabet equals numbers) in order to get ready to use our brand new Chumashim.
Yeah!!!!

E
`neic ipipr - Current Events
As we get ready for the holiday of Rosh HaShana, we have begun to hear the shofar every day.
We practiced learning the names of the three types of sounds that they make with a great song

PL
called, Listen and Youll Know . Songs will be coming home soon for you to enjoy. We learned
that these sounds remind us of three types of Jews that cry to HaShem, asking for forgivenss. We
also learned the details of how one should ask for forgiveness and do daEWY . The shape of the
shofar reminds us of that even though our students mitzvot may seem small (the small opening of
the shofar), in HaShems eyes they are really tall and important (the large opening).
M
P.S. Reminders and Notices
Please make sure to check your childs Home folder for their daily homework and material.
Please have your child bring in at least one penny a day for tzedaka.
SA

May HaShem grant all of us a year of blessing and success.

1) Objective: The learner will....

2) Anticipotory Set (Focus): - A short activity or prompt that focuses the students' attention before the
actual lesson begins. Used when students enter the room or in a transition. A hand-out given to students at the
door, review question written on the board, "two problems" on the overhead are examples of AS.

3) Purpose ( Objective ) : - The purpose of today's lesson, why the students need to learn it, what they will

4) Input: - The vocabulary, skills, and concepts the teacher will impart to the students - the "stuff" the kids
need to know in order to be successful.

[Step #4]

5) Modeling (show) - The teacher shows in graphic form or demonstrates what the finsihed product looks like -

a picture worth a thousand words.

6) Guided Practice (follow me) - The teacher leads the students through the steps necessary to perform the
skill using the trimodal approach - hear/see/do.

7) Checking For Understanding (CFU) - The teacher uses a variety of questioning strategies to determine
"Got it yet?" and to pace the lesson - move forward?/back up?

8) Independent Practice - The teacher releases students to practice on their own based on #3-#6.

9) Closure - A review or wrap-up of the lesson - "Tell me/show me what you have learned today".

The Alef-Bais of Good Middos
While all the volumes of the Mishna concentrate on one of more Mitzvos and their Dinim, there is one
Mesechta in the middle of the Seder of Nezikin which is an exception. This is Mesaches Avos, which we learn on
Shabbos afternoons during the weeks between Pesach and Shavuos. It consists of six chapters, and from
beginning to end, it concentrates on two main themes, the way one should learn Torah, and the Middos Tovos we
should learn in order to live our lives in the way of the Torah.
Middos are the way we act and how we think and feel. They influence every move we make. It is therefore
very important to sort our the good ones from the bad, and make the worthwhile effort to master the good ones.
Going in the order of the Alef Bais, let us take a brief look at some of the middos mentioned in Pirkei Avos.

stands for -Emes, Truth, which Rabbon Shimon ben Gamliel says is one of the three
pillars on which the world continues to exist (Chapter 1:18)

stands for Bizoyon, abuse, about which Ben Azzai says: Dont look down on any man,

E
whoever he may be. (Chapter 4:3)

stands for Gaavah, arrogance. A person who is humble is included among the students of

PL
Avrohom, but a arrogant person is a talmid of Bilaam Harasha. (Chapter 5:22)

stands for Derech eretz, proper behavior. Rebbe Elozor ben Azariah tells us that the
Torah cannot exist without proper behavior. ( Chapter 3:21)

stands for Hachnosas orchim, hospitality. A persons home should be wide open to
receive guests, says Yosi ben Yochanan, and let poor people feel at home with you, as if
M
they were members of the household. (Chapter 1:5)

stands for Vasronus, generosity, for if a man says: What is mine is yours, and yours is
certainly yours, he is a chossid. (Chapter 5:13)

SA

stands for Zerizus, eagerness. This is what Rebbe Tarfon calls for when he announces:
The day is short, but the work is great, yet the workmen are lazy, although the reward is
great and the employer is insistent, (Chapter 2:20)

stands for Chshad, suspicion, of which Yehoshua ben Perachia says, since one should give
all men the benefit of the doubt, by judging them favorably. (Chapter 1:6)

stands for Tuv eiyin, a good eye. Being happy for others is what Rebbe Elozor praises as
the proper path for a person to take in life. (Chapter 2:13)

stands for Yiras Cheit, fear of sin. Rebbe Chanina Dosa says: A person who places his
fear to sin before his wisdom can be sure that his wison will continue. (Chapter 3)

stands for Kaas, anger. A person easily angered and easily calmed down is certainly
better than one hard to anger and difficult to calm down. One who is hard to anger but
easy to calm down is a chossid; but one who is easily angered and difficult to calm down

Is the time to make us think


lwI, I & 
The I didnt sink
8 days of this 

E
The 10th day is a fast
Fruit trees blossom at last
PL
The winters almost past
On this holiday we have a blast. Oh, oh, oh,

M
We sing happily, Its the end of slavery
We count the days and wait
SA

The *kI sets us straight


 A sad story to tell
The w%5 fell
 We pray that all is well
And then we start the year again...
