Reaching for the stars
Author: Lianna Krantzberg
//What an amazing way to start our week! On Monday we opened our classroom (physically and virtually) to grandparents and special friends from all over the world.
In preparation for Yom Yerushalaim (Jerusalem Day), we focused all of our activities on Jerusalem! Check them out here:
Thank you to everyone who joined us in person and virtually!
//…FOR ICE CREAM!!
Starting tomorrow, the Grads are selling Menchies after school on Wednesdays and Fridays!
//As we were transitioning out of General Studies earlier this week, Morah Lianna said “We need to clean up this classroom before Morah Sigal starts teaching… It looks like a ZOO in here!”
… and Morah Sigal got inspired! Let’s make a zoo!
First, we had to pick an animal. Then, we searched for facts about the animal. Some examples included; What do gorillas eat? How many types of monkeys are there? What climate do snow leopards live in? What do red wolves eat? Where do pigs live?
After gathering our information, we made these posters!
We had a lot of fun!!
