The students of Shmuel Zahavy Cheder Chabad of Toronto have been watching the weekly Living Torah video of the Rebbe as a means of connecting to the Rebbe – “leben mit dem Rebben”.
To take this to a new level, Cheder Chabad talmidim of grades 1-4 have decorated special “Living With The Rebbe” notebooks for recording the Yiddish words of the Rebbe they understand while listening to the weekly sicha. This also keeps the children actively engaged while sitting with proper derech eretz, concentrating on the familiar Yiddish words and phrases of the Rebbe.
To date, in a four to five minute segment of the weekly DVD, the boys have in the first month of this program written in Yiddish on average per week; grade one – 10 words, grade two – 22 words, grade three – 53 words and grade four – 58 words!
“Our talmidim’s ability to accomplish this is due to our efforts at teaching in Yiddish in the younger grades. This gives our talmidim the distinct advantage of not only learning Torah in Yiddish but also the ability of grasping the Rebbe’s words more readily,” said Rabbi Baruch Zaltzman, Principal.
Rabbi Zaltzman also thanked his esteemed Rebbeim and Morahs of pre-school through grade four: Mrs. M. Kamman, Rabbi Serebryanski, Rabbi Ceitlin, Rabbi Rosenfeld and Rabbi Korf, for their commitment to providing a proper Yiddish instruction and a Chassidishe Chinuch.
