Hello Hagit and your students! I just wanted to thank you for working with my students in Watertown, Massachusetts. My students enjoyed writing you about aspects of American culture and learning about Israeli culture in return. Communicating through your school's blog fostered my students' curiosity about Israel and deepened their understanding of different cultures. I thank you for your Blog and your work for making that happen.

I wish you a great new school year, and look forward to collaborating again in the future!
