This Week in the Fours Jan. 20, 2012
No school on Monday! Tuesday we made snowmen to celebrate the anticipated first snow of the season. (October's was not anticipated!) The fours talked about what they know about snow, and then we learned a little more about how it is formed and falls to the ground. Ask your four to tell you all about snow!
While making their snowmen, the children cut out their own circles and painted to make their pictures.
On Wednesday, we had the Trike-A-Thon! The fours put forth their very best effort for the sake of the sick children. We made a list of how the children that are receiving the money might feel, and how the children who did the Trike-A-Thon felt after giving. The children thought that the sick children would feel happy, excited and good that someone cares about them. Our fours said they felt happy, proud and super to be able to help others. Since so many children were out on Wednesday, we will be running an extra Trike-A-Thon during playground time one day next week. Everyone will get to participate, and the children who were out will have their laps counted. Every child will receive a mitzvah leaf for their good deed.
On Thursday we read Going On A Bear Hunt and made bears to hibernate in the winter. We also made dens for the bears to stay cozy in.
Shabbat Shalom everyone!
Joyce and Tara
