Tu B’Shevat
Grades 1-3 spent the afternoon working on special activities together. The children were split into mixed age groups for the afternoon. They loved travelling to different classrooms to work at each station. #We Learn Better Together
In honour of Tu B”Shevat, Brigitte read a wonderful book. Everyone loved it!
Both classes also got together to plant some salvia seeds from JNF. The seeds were attached inside the top of a pencil. It was funny to put the pencil into a cup of soil.
The children said good bye to Morah Andy last week. They each made a special page for a special class book for Morah Andy. She took time to look at each page and read the messages the children wrote.
The children enjoyed a second Zoom call with children from different parts of Israel. They took turns presenting slides they made about their favourite foods. Our next Zoom call will take place on February 27th.
This week we read a story called Mimi’s Dream House. After reading the story the children were asked to draw their perfect dream house. The children let their imaginations run wild. They wrote about their dream houses and displayed them in the class.The students loved this type of writing.
It is so much fun to watch the students read each other’s work.
Kiran has been helping out in Grade One and SK classes on Mondays and Tuesdays over the last month and a half. He is a student at Algonquin College, and he is a natural fit in the SK and Gr.1. We will be sad to say goodbye to him this Tuesday.
1A and 1B recited a poem at the Rosh Chodesh Assembly this morning. They did a great job!
WE LEARN BETTER TOGETHER!
(Poem for Rosh Chodesh Adar)
Kitah Alef is a special place,
See the big smile on each face.
WE LEARN BETTER TOGETHER!
Hebrew, French, English and the Arts
We learn Judaics to fill our hearts.
WE LEARN BETTER TOGETHER!
Adding and subtracting is challenging but fun,
11 + 10 is 21.
WE LEARN BETTER TOGETHER!
We play games, sing a song,
Lots of fun all year long.
WE LEARN BETTER TOGETHER!
Books to read, poems to say,
Learning new things everyday.
WE LEARN BETTER TOGETHER!
Reading, writing, spelling too.
So much to learn, much to do.
WE LEARN BETTER TOGETHER!
We work as partners, small groups or a team
In our classroom, outside and in the gym
WE LEARN BETTER TOGETHER!
1A & 1B are the best team,
Every day our teachers beam.
WE LEARN BETTER TOGETHER!
