    What we did -- June 4

    • Several passed June TnT Torah readings.
    • Several passed more trope phrases.
    • Greatly enjoyed taking a year-end written assessment.

     

     

    What to do -- for next fall

    Remember the Torah trope!

    • We'll spend the first month reviewing it, and doing two TnT readings in the fall. Then we start Haftarah trope.
    • If didn't master Torah trope, focus on recognizing trope symbols by name. They're the same for Haftarah trope!
