Interview with Twins!

After learning about the birth of Yaakov and Eisav in this week's Parasha, Gan Gimmel was intrigued by the differences between Yaakov and Eisav. One of the reasons was because we have two sets of twins  in our class. Gavriella has a twin brother Eitan in Gan Bet and Jakob has a twin brother Ezra in Gan Bet. We decided to interview them and see if they had similar interests or if they were also different. We thought of a list of questions and we asked each twin alone so we could make sure that they gave their own original answer. We asked them questions such as What is your favorite color, food, shape, toy. We learned that Gavriella and Eitan had very different interests. They have different color hair and different color eyes! Jakob and Ezra shared two similarities, they share a favorite shape, a triangle and they both have hazel eyes. They do not have the same color hair and do not look alike! We discovered that even though they all share a birthday, each one of them is different and special in their own way!

Twins in Ganon Bet

After learning about the birth of Yaakov and Eisav in this week's Parsha, we discovered that we know a lot about twins. We have three sets of twins in our class. Twins are born on the same day,have the same Mom and Dad, and some even look alike . We interviewed Gabriella and Jordana first. We discovered that they live in the same house but they are very different. Gabriella likes to wear skirts and Jordana likes to wear pants. Next we interviewed Daniel and his sister Julie. Daniel likes to build with big hollow blocks and Julie likes to color. Finally, we interviewed Beth and Aleeza. We discovered that they are the most similar of all and that they both like princess dolls. We learned that Yaakov and Eisav were very different as well. Yaakov loved to learn Torah and Eisav loved to hunt. We culminated our study of twins by creating Yaakov and Eisav puppets and baking red and yellow cookies . Yum!!
