Question
Is it permissible for a rabbi in a cheder to go teach children during the seven days of mourning?
Answer
If, due to the absence of the regular teacher, the children would not learn properly even with a substitute, then the teacher should go and teach them. However, if they are familiar with the substitute and will learn properly from him, the mourning teacher is prohibited from going to teach them.
