Discovering Chanukah


Our class has been discovering all about Chanukah. We began by collaging our Chanukah menorah for the bulletin board. We are also singing many Chanukah songs. We started learning the story of Chanukah. We’ve been playing dreidel by play time.

We’ve also been reviewing our three colors and our shape circle. Today, we played with our blue goop. Morahs brought out special mats with a circle on it for the children to trace with goop. Some did it by themselves and some with help. It really helped the children digest the concept of a circle. By breakfast, one child said “hey, my cup is a circle!” and another child  “my bowl is a circle!”
