Chanuka prep!

We learned the story of Chanukah. We discussed the beautiful Beis Hamikdash and how the Jewish people loved it so much. We then learned about the King Anitochus who said the jewish people couldn't learn the Torah and do the Mitzvos we love so much. We discussed the Mitzvos we do. We help our parents, we share toys, we hug the Torah, we have shabbos party. We learned that the Macabees told Antiochus to go away! And they chased him away. Then they went back to their Beis Hamikdash and it was very messy and they had to clean it up. Afterwairds, they wanted to light the menorah and couldn't find the oil. They looked and looked and found the oil!

Here is a picture of the children with the different Miztvos we know about.

Chanuka in Prenursery

We began Chanuka preparation in our class this week.
We made a big Menorah for our bulletin using collage materials. We reviewed our three colors Red, Yellow, and Blue.





Then we started to learn the story of Chanuka. We learned that the Beis Hamikdash was a big, beautiful shul many years ago. We discussed the many mitzvos/good deeds we do in the classroom and how much we love doing them. We then learned that a long ago king wanted to take away our beloved mitzvos and the Jewish people didn't like it.




We really enjoyed our healthy juices from the juice bar! Thank you!

Fall trip

We had a lot of fun on our trip today. Because of some bus confusion, we ended up going to a closer park. We enjoyed going on a big yellow school bus. When we got to the park, we enjoyed playing in the leaves and collecting leaves. Afterwards, we played in the playground before heading back to school.
