On Tuesday, November 29, the Yeshiva of Central Queens welcomed Moshe Cohen, LCSW, to YCQ. He presented information to our Grade 7 and 8 students on responsible technology use.
It’s always a blast when students from SINAI@YCQ join together with their peers from the Yeshiva of Central Queens for a STEM inclusion class!
The annual Stella K. Abraham High School for Girls Israel alumni reunion is one of the most highly anticipated events of the year.
The Grade 6 girls of the Yeshiva of Central Queens (YCQ) learned and celebrated together with faculty and family at a wonderful Bas Mitzvah Workshop held on Wednesday night, November 17. Thank you, Morah Leemor Abraham, for leading the event, and thank you to all the attendees who made this evening lively and meaningful.
With Chodesh Kislev upon us, Rabbi Pollak’s fourth grade class at Yeshiva Tiferes Moshe looked back on their accomplishments thus far. The talmidim have completed two p’rakim of mishnayos B’rachos and have nearly completed Parshas Sh’mos.
For years I have been troubled with understanding the ideas behind Gematria. I have no doubt that my difficulty was compounded by the often-trite application by many who use poetic license in their various speeches. So many bar mitzvah boys had their names twisted into a gematria that amazingly matched up with the numerical value of the parshah they leined just minutes before! Ditto for the chasan and kallah during sheva brachos.
