The festival of lights is approaching fast and room 23 has been celebrating and preparing all week! The children are excited for our upcoming Hanukkah party and each day they continue to learn and practice the story of Hanukkah with our neighbors in room 22. This week we have focused on the blessings and practiced lighting the first candle in class together. The children have also been working on various art projects that require team work, working together and sharing materials. We have been busy working on our class hanukkiyah, using some of our items we collected from our nature walk, and other natural items that the children help to pick out. The children have also been working on making a haunkkiyah of their own to take home and use for you family Hanukkah celebrations.
Also this week Cantor Emma came to our class to talk about Hanukkah. She told us a Hanukkah related story from the Torah that focuses sharing things and time with others. The children really look forward to our weekly visits from Cantor Emma. REMINDERS *Hanukkah party @9:30 Wednesday Dec 5th * Library- Ileana/Zizi @10:30 Dec 3rd *Shabbat Girl Dec 7th Aliyah
