Dear parents,
This week we opened our Peach Room and we are so happy to have a new beginning.
Our friends were so excited to explore all of the centers in the classroom: the sensory bin, kitchen, library, slide and much more. Learning where all of the materials go, where each center is, and making sure everyone feels loved and safe are our main goals. After all the classroom exploration, we were ready to learn and explore about Noah's Ark and the animals.
Our friends had so many fun activities with animals. We had farm animals in the sensory table with sand and different size scoopers to find and name them all.
The next day, we washed and scrubbed animals with sponges and toothbrushes which our friends enjoyed! With the beautiful weather outside, Morah set some activities outside for our other classroom friends to join in and play together with us.
We created wild animals with white paint and black paper. Each friend picked an animal they liked and dipped it in the white paint and then stamped it on the black paper to see the different foot shapes each animal has. We spoke about how animals and people have different shaped feet, some are longer than others, some are wider than others.
This week, we learned about Parsha Noah. Morah Ora made a make-shift ark out of a big cardboard box with cut out windows. We took turns peaking through the windows and said hello to our friends and Morahs. Then Morah Ora added a bridge to our ark. Our friends took turns going inside the ark and balancing their bodies on the bridge. These activities help our friends build some motor skills!
Thank you for trusting us to guide your little ones.
Shabbat Shalom!
Morah Ora and Morah Chaya
