The children enjoyed our Chanukah Workshop this morning where they had an opportunity to enjoy some science and math activities in each of the early childhood classrooms. In Ganon Bet they made edible menorahs, created colorful designs by spinning dreidels in paint, and used their five senses to look through magic glasses, taste potato chips in different dips, listen to Chanukah music, smell spices, and feel objects in a "touch box." In Gan Aleph they went through an obstacle course and created Chanukah rubbings. In Gan Bet they made Chanukah cookies and edible dreidels, and decorated Chanukah bags. In Gan Gimmel they played a latke number game, made dreidel graphs, and did some patterning with candles. They then returned to our classroom where they made wax resist paintings, created mirror images, and experimented with colors on a light box. What creative ways to have fun and learn at the same time!!
