Creating Chanukiyot in Ganon Aleph

The children in Ganon Aleph utilized so many different skills to create their chanukiyot. They used their fine motor skills to sand down the wood and make it smooth. Spatial skills came into play when they placed the cans and decided where the shammash should go. Their creative skills were used when they painted and designed them. Finally, they used their math skills when they counted out the pennies and bolts to glue on top. As you can see, it was a multi-step project into which the children put a lot of effort and had a lot of fun, too!
