B"H

Sensory overload in the Nitzanim class this week! We got to explore with their senses and learn about our body parts. For creative art, we all glued mouths, ears, eyes and noses to a face! We learned what our nose does, and each got a turn smelling different things - vanilla, cinnamon, vinegar, and lemon. Everyone worked together to match the right clothes to the right body part using felt pieces. Mat man came to teach us how to make the letter E. Our block centre was a giant E with excavators. For sensory, our bin was still filled with elephants and evergreen trees. We also practiced drawing E's in salt trays and for fine gross motor, we lined up buttons in a letter E. For creative arts, some of us made paintings of eggs using balloons, and some made giant eggs using shaving cream and glue. Our water bin was even filled with glow sticks. During circle time, some of us tasted salt and sugar, and also smelled cinnamon.

The Perachim class is still engaged in the fall theme and learned about the letter D. They coloured leaves which each student which they will be using for their math books. During circle they focused on words that start with the letter D - ducks, dark, daddy, donuts, and more! They also scattered toy dinosaurs throughout the sandbox and asked the students to find them for a fun sensory game. For creative arts they transformed the letter D into dinosaurs, with a tail, long neck, horns and four legs and learnt a few things about dinosaurs! Some of the students also worked on tracing letters in our workbook. They also painted and practiced using scissors for cutting.
