This week we had an exciting week in the Peach Room! A new friend joined our class. We welcomed Caleb Zawacki to our gang! Our friends are so happy to have a new friend to play with. Zoe, Geffen, and Yochai shared their toys so nicely with Caleb and made him feel like they have been friends for ever.
This week we focused on individual exploration. Our friends played and explored everything in the classroom and in the backyard and had so many new experiences. Yochai is becoming better and better on the bicycles. Zoe is really starting to love the library and the large selection of books we have. Every day Zoe chooses another book and asks her Morahs to read it to her and the rest of her friends. Geffen is fast becoming the class cook and chef! Geffen's love for the kitchen is amazing. He loves to put all the different foods into pots and pans and make soup and other delicacies for his friends! Then he puts the food away on the shelves and pretends to wash out all the dishes like a champ! Caleb really enjoys playing with the cars and reading books about cars, trucks, and trains too!
Because of Tu B'Shvat (the birthday of the trees) we did fun activities with fruits, vegetables, and flowers. This week we painted with flowers and it was such a fun experience! We also painted with silver foil which was different than a regular paper and we noticed how shiny it is in the sun. Our friends also loved playing with our fruit and vegetables blocks. The children were able to name all of the fruits and vegetables, and we built a very large tower with the bricks!
This week we started Sports with Jump Bunch and it was a great opportunity to work on our balance, spatial awareness, and hand-eye coordination! Our friend Mina was not feeling well this week so we called her to wish her a Refuah Shaleima (a prayer to get well quick). We can't wait to see her next week! <3
This Friday was a blast! Our Grandparents (and some other relatives) came to school for our Tu B'Shvat program! We had an amazing Sing-A-Long with Rabbi Tzvi and then enjoyed riding the train, drinking freshly squeezed orange juice, eating yummy fruit kabobs, and doing an art project together.
Shabbat Shalom everybody! Can't wait to seeing all of our friends next week! =)
