Happy Pesach

Pesach is here and we are so exciting

 to celebrate the Seder with family and

 friends.

We are so proud of the children

 on their Haggadah project.

For the past few weeks the children 

worked to creating their own Haggadah 

for Pesach, They loved working

 on the holiday symbols.

The children are singing Ma Nishtana beautifully.

They know the story of Pesach and songs too.

Mayer, Ido and Devorah built a Pyramid. 

We did a Haggadah provocation and let the children explore.

We can't explained the excitement in class, 

when the children saw the finished Haggadah.

\They saw themselves on the cover and were so happy,

then they shared with friend what they saw:

Mayer: " I see you Morah Osnat."

Chana: " Yah, look here you are."

Devorah : " It's funny."

Nissan: "It's me."

They just loved it!

We wish you happy Pesach vkasher!

Pesach Cleaning

Pesach is coming closer,

and so the children are finishing 

their project for Pesach.

The children are beading a pipe cleaner

 through holes, creating a Matzah.

The children learned all about chametz,

and they cleaned the classroom to make sure there is no chametz.

we are almost ready for Pesach.

Maror Tasting

The children were so excited to see

so much snow outside.

We asked our friends:

What did they do yesterday in the snow?

Everyone said: " a snowman."

We shared with our friends

 how we each built a snowman.

It was fun hearing them telling

 us all about their snow day!

The children kept working on their Pesach project. 

We had a Pyramid provocation with heavy bricks.

The children built Pyramids by themselves.

We wanted the children to feel how

 hard it is to work and work.

Mendel have a very heavy brick...

Then our Pyramid fell down... 

and King Pharaoh were so Angry,

and he made us work so hard... again.

 Today the children had a small

 taste from the Maror on Seder plate.

Mayer was so excited to explore...

He felt it and smell it:

Mayer: " it's heavy, I don't like it."

Then we all tasted it too, we cut a piece... and they said the same:

" It's ugly, I don't like it."

We told the children that's 

how the Jewish people felt.

Today we let the children experience

 filling the 4 cups with snow.

(since we had a lot snow outside) 

And that wasn't easy.

Celebrating Shabbat And More

Having Shabbat celebration with 

all our friends in school is our

 We wish Levi Refuah Shlemah,

Seder Plate

Let's set the Seder plate.

We learned whats on the Seder plate.

Maror - bitter herbs, karpas - parsley,

 zroah- bone, bitzah- egg,

charoset, hazeret- horse radish.

Today the children used different

 materials to create their Seder plate. 

4 Cups of wine on the Seder table.

The children were noticing there was wine on the table:

Levi: " Its grape juice."

Nissan: " Its purple."

Chana:" Icount the cups." " Its 4 kidush cup."

The children were pouring water 

into cups, practicing pouring

 without spilling.

We also told the story of baby Moshe.

Chana as Ima yocheved put baby Moshe in the Nile.

Devorah as princess Batyah pulling Moshe out from the Nile river.
