What Can You Do To Take Care Of The World?

By Anonymous
We had a wonderful time connecting with you during Back to School Night!We are looking forward to a wonderful year of learning, growth and fun with your children!

- Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Liptz -

Highlights from Thursday: 

- We continued working in our 4 rotating math centers and used the interactive white board to form the number two. We also shaded in shapes to distinguish two items out of a larger quantity. *Please note some photos are from Wednesday but we wanted to include their amazing work!*

























- Ms. Angelo read the story Engineer Ari and the Rosh Hashanah Ride which introduced us to more Rosh Hashanah items, symbols and practices. The story also discusses forgiveness, self reflection and apologies. As we start a new year it's important to mend problems with friends and family and re-commit to being our best selves in 5778. 





- We listed to the story Why Should I Protect Nature? and created a word wall of ways we can take care of our planet. At the tables we drew our ideas and used a combination of copying words, teacher dictation and writing on our own to express our thoughts. 














- In Art we began a self portrait collage project using beautiful paper. We practiced our fine motor skills by cutting out clothes, legs, arms, faces and all of the attributes that make us...us!

Happy 6th birthday Berkeley! Brigit Deveerd, a Beekeeper, showing us the veil she puts on to protect herself. Smelling the honeycomb was delicious! The bees were not as scary when they are in a jar.

Rashi Middle School Students are busy working on the upcoming play "A Wrinkle in Time" to be presented on November 16-17th.  Students are able to work behind the scenes by signing up for two different in school MS electives classes.  The Tuesday elective "Props and Costumes" and the Friday elective "Technical Theater Design" have been working the last few weeks designing for the performance.  Students in the electives have identified the costume, prop and scenery pieces that they are working on for the eight week electives.  Using Design Thinking they have started the process by learning the wants and needs for a show and talking to the Directors (their clients) to understand the vision for the show.   The start of the process includes research using the script to learn about needs for the design and the internet to learn about the time period of the 80s  for the show settting.  The students also created a Mood Board for costume inspiration.
