The Oak children spent the day as Kindergarteners.
They began the morning with free play and participating in language arts activities.
Then, the children visited Morah Schusterman's classroom to daven and listen to a story.
After morning Judaic class, the children returned to Mrs. Minzlaff's class for snack time.
Next, Mrs. Minzlaff explained that the Kindergarteners are currently learning about flowers. The children participated in flower activities at the table. One table was a flower exploration with books, fake flowers, and pollinators. Drawing flowers was done at two tables. At the final table, the children created flowers using loose parts.
Unfortunately, we could not have recess on the big kids' playground due to the rain. The children were very disappointed. We decided to write a letter to Mrs. Halperin to ask if we could please go to recess with Kindergarten on a different day.

The children enjoyed some extra free play time in Kindergarten during recess time.
Next was lunch time in the cafeteria.
Morah Schusterman picked up the class from lunch and brought them back to her room. She told a Torah story. Then, the children participated in four play-based activities based on the Torah story.
The final activity was a visit to the library. Mrs. Berg, the librarian, read a story, and the children were given time to wander around the library and check everything out.
It was a wonderful time in Kindergarten.
This note, saying Love Kindergarten, created by Leba, best sums up the children's thoughts of their day.
