OUR CLASS HANUKKAH PARTY

Morah Mushky and I thought it would be very nice to have a class Hanukkah Party, that ended with the children getting little presents from both of us. Before we had the party we lit the Menorah, with Brachot, and sang Hanukkah songs. Afterward the kids were able to enjoy some treats. It was a lot of fun to see them having such a great time.

Olive Oil Workshop

In the month of December, instead of going on a trip the trip cam to us. We had an Olive Oil Workshop come and show the children how oil to light the Menorah is made. It was really a lot of fun to watch the whole process.  The kids had a chance to pick the olives, and then come up and put them inside of the olive press, and turn the press to make the oil come out. One other thing that was really exciting was when they were able to pour the oil into the Menorah and watch as the oil made light.  As always I took tons of pictures for you to enjoy !!

Reading Workshop

In Reading Workshop we were learning about the Beginning, Middle, and End of a story. In class we read many books together and discussed and recorded the Beginning, Middle, and End of a story. I had the children choose any book that they would like to read and the complete a graphic organizer, where they had to write the Beginning, Middle and End of a story. This was completely independent work, and I am so proud of what they were able to do. Each child was able to complete the assignment without any significant assistance from a teacher. It was such a pleasure to walk around the room and see the children working with such concentration and enthusiasm. I took some pictures to show off what my kids can do!!!
