Hanukkah

 

All the students in Kitah Gimmel had a terrific time celebrating Hanukkah at school. They created Hanukkah board games using all the new vocabulary they had learned in Hebrew. The students also wrote instructions on how to play the games. They learned how important it is to write clear instructions so friends can have fun playing the games.

Everyone had so much fun playing the board games that they didn’t even notice that they were reviewing vocabulary too!

The whole week was filled with Ruach and perhaps Hannukah music videos at lunchtime. A class favourite just happened to be I want a puppy for Hanukkah. As far as we know there were no Hanukkah puppy gifts reported in our classes this year.

The students wore Hanukkah fashion, ate latkes, and had some terrific dreidel battles. The Hebrew reading each night was different Hanukkah songs. Two students even learned to play the songs on the piano as well.

The students also painted their very own dreidels and made some beautiful decorations for the class. Take a look at some of these beautiful creations below.
