Exploring the Symbols of Rosh Hashanah

As the children entered the Oak classroom on Friday, they discovered apples, shofars, Rosh Hashanah books, pomegranates, bees and honey throughout the room. During the next two weeks, the Oak friends will be exploring the symbols of Rosh Hashanah through activities and play based experiences.  

Here's some of the Rosh Hashanah fun for the first two days.  This is just the beginning of two weeks filled with exciting activities leading up to the Jewish New Year.
