Rabbi Aron Srulovitz' Bar and Bat Mitzvah students are engaged in a reading project this month. As part of the program, they prepared stories to read to our kindergarteners. The children were divided into groups, and paid rapt attention as the "big kids" read some popular children's books to them. The middle schoolers felt proud of their ability to lead a group of young children. The kindergarteners, who truly look up to the middle schoolers, learned through their modeling the value of reading. A fun and meaningul activity for all involved!
Isn't that Jared Dallas reading to the class in the top picture? Very nice.
