pesach is coming!

We've been preparing for Pesach and learning the Pesach story. Each child has been practicing the first question of the four questions. We are getting very good at it!
We also have been learning the story of Pesach. We learned today that when Pharoh told Moishe that the Jewish People can leave Mitzrayim/Egypt, the Jews were so excited! They packed so quickly and needed to make bread to eat on the trip. But they had only a few minutes to make it, so they had to make it very fast. So we also quickly made dough and "matzahs" in our classroom. Morah Perel put the timer on and we had to really quickly make the matzahs. It was really fun and helped the children understand the idea that matzah cooking quickly.









Check out our road we made by play time.

Purim Prep and Purple

We started our week with a bang! Funny Hat Day! We had so much fun showing off our funny hats at the Rosh Chodesh Rally.









We have been learning our Purim story and decorating our Purim puppets.






We also learned that red and blue make Purple! We mixed red and blue paint and used painting rollers to paint with it. We also dyed macaroni using food coloring and rubbing alcohol. We can't wait to fill our graggers with our colorful macaroni.
