When one enwraps himself with the tallit gadol (large tallit) it is unnecessary to cover his head and face down to his mouth; this is indicated in the laws of tzitzit in the siddur (p. 11). It is our custom, however, to cover the eyes1 with the upper part of the tallit.
During the days of sefira it is customary to study tractate Sota, one page each day2 - in addition to one's regular study sessions.
