Books:
We are listening to many stories. Among other great books, Ms. Alexander read Noisy Nora and Meet the Parents this week. Noisy Nora from Rosemary Wells on Vimeo. Ms. Anna read "Yalda Echat Amra" (A girl said) in Hebrew. A little girl tries to pronounce the word "tractor". Mommy (ima), daddy (aba), grandmother (savta), grandfather (saba), aunt (doda) and uncle (dod) are all teaching her to pronounce the word. We prepared a video book for you to practice these words at home. Ramat Ganians loved this book.
Outside:
We enjoyed the beautiful weather outside.
Math
Gan Ramat Gan has its own money and we started to count our red and white dollars in order to practice buying and counting things both in Hebrew and in English. We had a wonderful week in Gan Ramat Gan.

We also practiced these words in Hebrew: Sandalim - Sandals Naalayim - Shoes Magafayim - Boots See us in our "studio" and look at our master pieces in the album below. We had a lot of fun on Friday in our pajamas. We played with a parachute in the Gym, watched movies and ate on the carpet during snack time.
We have been in school for almost a 100 days. We learned a lot and also we changed a lot. One of the nicest skills we learned is sharing. Many Ramat Ganians are able to manage the class before lunch time and share responsibilities. Though we are only 3/4 years old, we can work hard. This video shows how Eldana and Ellie are inviting their peers before lunch.
