Week of December 12

We started off this week by making Jewish stars out of Popsicle sticks and glitter paint to hang on the Windows! The children enjoyed making holiday cards for you. They have been working hard on their gifts. We made edible dreidels and Christmas trees. The children enjoyed eating their masterpieces! 
Our sensory table is filled with rice and the children have really loved playing with it. We also transformed the dramatic play area into Santa's Workshop which the children have loved. They created Santa Claus beards out of the cotton and paraded around the room. 
 We have continued to learn and recognize our Kindergarden sight words and work on our letters. The addition at morning meeting has been a big hit. We have also been practicing math problems on the white board which the children have really taken a liking too.

 We will resume our travels to Israel after the holiday break!

Have a great weekend Susan and Sara 
  This week the children learned to say how old they are in Mandarin. 
I am 4 years old-- Wǒ sì suì
I am 4 1/2 years old--Wǒ sì suì bàn
I am 5 years old--wǒ wǔ suì

We also sang a song about the elephants. The lyrics are translated as below--

Elephant, Elephant, why is your trunk so long?
Mom says a long snout is beautiful.

To sing along please check out this video--


Stay warm and have a great weekend!
