FROM MISS DEANA
What a busy week we’ve had getting ready for Pesach. This week we learned the letter “Kk”. Our Sign Language words are: key, ketchup, kangaroo. During our morning circle the kids voted on which circle game we should play and we had a tie between “What’s Missing” with shapes and last name hunt. So we played one in the morning and the other game at our closing circle. We spent the week working on several Pesach activities. On Tuesday the children painted with forks to make matzah for their Hagadaha, and used water colors to paint their Seder plates. The children have been working very hard on their projects as well as learning the Maneshtanah. We have been really talking about food we eat during Pesach. We started going through our play food in our home living area. We definitely have a lot of chometz! On Thursday, we played Pesach memory. Playing memory games is excellent for children because it enhances cognitive abilities like short-term memory, focus, and concentration. It strengthens visual perception, spatial recognition, and attention span while improving critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Additionally, these games build patience, boost self-esteem, and teach kids to follow rules. I hope you all have a restful Shabbos, It’s almost Pesach! The children are getting ready. This week, we began learning about how to prepare for Pesach. We learned about how we carefully clean our homes for Pesach. On the night before Pesach, we conduct a special hunt called bedikas chametz. Ten pieces of bread are hidden throughout the house, and we search for them using a candle, a feather, and a wooden spoon. The following morning, the entire bag is burned in the barbecue or fire pit. The children also learned about the process of selling one’s chametz for Pesach. Best wishes for a restful and peaceful Shabbos!
