Rosh Hashana Through Our 5 Senses



Ganon Bet has been busy learning all about Rosh Hashana, what better way to do it than through our senses! We had a chance to use our sense of touch discovering various objects that relate to Rosh Hashana such as shofarot, honey dishes, apples, 2 round challahs, and our fuzzy friend Devora the bee. After learning the hebrew vocabulary for an apple (tapuach), honey (dvash), and bee (devora) we each had a chance to create our very own honey dish. Some of us chose to make an apple and others chose to make a bee. We started with strips of plaster which we dipped in water. We had to cover our dishes and make sure they were smooth. The wet plaster felt ooey and gooey. We can't wait until they dry and we can paint them and finish creating our apples and bees!
