Dear Room C Families,
We have had another busy, fun filled week of learning here in room C! our focus this week was identifying shapes. We learned a new shapes song, played shapes bingo (shape & color matching game) painted with sponge brushes, stamping circles and stars onto paper and created shapes with moon dough. The children can identify shapes receptively and expressively now. We invite you to continue the learning at home! Ask them about the shapes they see while you're driving, at home at the park, etc. It’s been amazing to see your children grow cognitively and socially, making connections, building language and their friendships each day. They have also shown such growth walking in line on the rope to the temple for Shabbat and sitting though services. Rabbi Sari and Ditza kept things lively and fun with music and story time so everyone had a great time! Shabbat Shalom & Enjoy the weekend Love, Anita and Elena

Dear Room C Parents,
Room C has been buzzing with activities and excitement as we celebrated Yom Ha’atzmaut this week! It was all about celebrating Israel. We shared the book, “Good Night Israel”, talked about the flag and its colors (as well as all other colors) in a lovely circle time story and sang happy birthday all week long. The holiday festivities provided lots of opportunities for learning as we continued to focus on exploring shapes and colors. For example how the the Star of David is made up of two triangles and the two stripes are rectangles (as well as the flag itself). We also continued to talk about feelings. The children really enjoyed our circle time song “The Story of my Feelings” again and we can see just how soothing and regulating music and movement can be. Look it up on YouTube- your little ones love it! On Yom Ha'atzmaut, we baked cupcakes. Each child got the chance to help pour and stir the ingredients while counting and practicing our turn taking skills. At the end of the day we lit candles, sang, "Happy Birthday" and enjoyed a our yummy treat in honor of Israel. I think it goes without saying, they really enjoyed this activity! We ended the week with special Shabbat services with Ditza and Rabbi Josh. We paraded around the temple proudly wearing the Israeli flag colors, shaking our blue and white Pompoms! So much fun!! Shabbat Shalom and have a great weekend! Elena & Anita
