Happy Shavuot!

We finished preparing for Shavuot today. The children are excited to bring home the Har Sinai's they made, and to use their Shavuot placemats.

We glued brown construction paper that the children cut onto bowl, then added "flowers" of tissue paper, and a Torah on top!


We discussed how we eat dairy food on Shavuot, and glued dairy foods onto paper to make special Shavuot placemats.



We also "planted" flowers in the sensory bin..


danced with the Torahs in front of the Aron Kodesh we made last week...


practiced our colors by matching flowers...



 painting Har Sinai with watercolors...


and making flower gardens with stickers.



We also had Rosh Chodesh club, where we put our tzedakah in a big tzedakah box, and made edible Torahs on Har Sinai.









We have also been busy preparing for our end of the year show.  We have been learning the first letter of our names, which we painted and decorated with sequins.  We then marble painted paper. Wait until you see the final project!





We don't want to ruin any surprises, but we are working on our costumes for our show...


We've also enjoyed hanging with our friends...

and blowing bubbles outside.





I want to send a special shout out to Jakey, who came to school today in his red nose!  We taught the kids about red nose day, and about the importance of giving tzedakah to children in need, like we do in davening every day.  He inspired some of the other children to don red noses, as well!



Have a wonderful Shavuot and Shabbat Shalom!
