Familiar faces

Today the children played with playdough.

They were making faces using buttons and

acorns for eyes and mouths. 

Today the children were challenged 

to match two parts of 

a face together.

They were very interested in 

finding the right match.

Akiva noticed one face had 

blue eyes and the other had brown. 

He knew that was not a match.

We have a new display in our 

sensory table.

It is a house with small figures and 

represents the family environment.

Mayer is playing with Aba and Ima.

Nissan thought a baby is a good

part of a family.

By now we have different corners in our class 

for different subjects we are working on: 

colors, me and my family, fall and weather.

The kids can choose what is interesting to them.  

Here Dalya, Akiva, Nissan and Levi 

are sorting primary colors.

They discussed where to hang each item.

At circle time we discussed me and

my family. 

We learned a new song.

Open, shut them,

The children moved their hands 

to the song.

The end of the song is

Blow a little kiss!

We also read the poem 

"I'm glad to be me"

I look in the mirror and what do 

I see,

I see the me

no one else can be.

I am precious,

I am glad to be me.

My hair, my face,

my personality.

We discussed our family.

How many siblings, boys or girls,

and where I am in the family.

Mayer said sister.

Akiva named all his siblings.

 Nissan gave Mendel's full name.

Chana knew the order of 

her siblings.

Dalya, Levi, and Devorah added

their siblings to the chart.
