Pyramids & Plagues

Bang bang bang your hammers low! We have been singing and learning all about our slavery in Egypt.

We built pyramids, used real hammers and nails to bang into wood, and talked about the Jewish people’s hard work in Egypt. We know that Pesach is the holiday of our freedom from slavery. We have two Seder meals and celebrate the miracles from Hashem.

We enjoyed “pouring four cups of wine” and counting our grapes to make Kiddush.

We learned that Hashem made many miracles, like turning the water to blood, so we did a science magic trick and made our own magical red water.

Frogs hopped on Pharaoh’s head, and we practiced hopping our frogs from lily pad to lily pad.

We created an art piece inspired by the work of Shari Pedowitz and used watercolor to paint the splitting of the sea.

We practiced setting the Seder table, did an awesome experiment with milk and colored oil, and stayed busy making all of our Passover projects.

We ripped tissues and painted to mod podge a Seder plate and Kiddush cup.

We also enjoyed Animaly, where we met a new animal, and had fun at Playball with Coach Anthony. We ended our week celebrating Shabbat as a school and baking challah. Shabbat Shalom!
