Happy 3rd birthday to Stella, Ryan and Matilda who all celebrated birthdays at school this week.
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 story of hanukkah and its characters. We also practiced singing songs and lighting the first candle in class together with room 22. The children have been working on various art projects that require team work and sharing of materials. One way we have been busy is working on our class hanukkiyah, using some of our items we collected from our nature walk, and other natural and loose items that the children helped to pick out. The children have also been working on making a hanukkah gift of their own to take home and use for you family hanukkah celebrations. Cantor Emma came to our class to talk about Hanukkah. She told us a Hanukkah related story from the Torah that focuses on sharing things and time with others. The children really look forward to our weekly visits from Cantor Emma.
