Prepare your students for Rosh Chodesh with this sign featuring the complete Hebrew text of Birkas Hachodesh according to Nusach Ashkenaz. This prayer announcing the new month is recited in synagogue on the Shabbos before each Rosh Chodesh. Students can fill in the blank lines provided with the name of the new month and the day or days when Rosh Chodesh will fall during the coming week.
The starry-sky theme and image of the new moon serve as a reminder that our calendar, in particular Rosh Chodesh, follows the lunar cycle. Use this handout to familiarize students with this significant tefillah and as a springboard for discussing their hopes and goals for the coming month.
