Blue

This week we started with the color blue. Our Morah took out so many blue objects for us to hold at circle time.

Daniella looking through a blue block to see our whole room turn blue!



We painted with blue paint.




We made collages with glue and a variety of blue materials such as blue tissue paper, blue pompoms, blue feathers, blue foam pieces, etc







Some of our friends helped to sort out our colorful foam pieces and were able to pick out all the blue pieces!!!



Sukkos

What a fun week we had in school last week celebrating the Jewish holiday of Sukkos. We sang songs about building a sukkah . We saw the lulav and esrog plants/fruit that we make a blessing on. We even ate lunch outside in our very own Sukkah in our back yard.

Pre Shavuos Activities

We had an extra special activity in honor of Shavuos. We decorated ice cream with all sorts of fun toppings!








We made our beautiful mountain book to go along with the "i am a mountain" song that we love to sing in honor of Shavuos.




 
We decorated covers for our  Torahs with shiny sequins and glue.

butterflies!

How happy we were to see that our caterpillars had turned into butterflies when we came in one morning. We gave them oranges to eat and then took our butterflies outside and let them fly away.

Caterpillars!

We have three caterpillar friends in our classroom! Every day we observe them to see how they change. When they first arrived they were so tiny we could hardly see them . Then they ate and they grew bigger and bigger. We were fascinated by how much they grew over the weekend. Now they are all sleeping in their cocoons...We are eagerly waiting to see how they turn into butterflies.
