Celebrating Parashat Noach - in Style!


Welcome back to the first full week of school! This Tuesday, we began

YOGA! Yoga is lead by Corrie Chasler, of JCC & Kids Empowered.
GYMNASTICS, which will take place beginning on Friday, October 26th,
will be coached by CATHY FRESIA of the JCC Oak Park.
These exciting enrichments will be  available to all the students in
the  ECC supporting our commitment to give the kids “Healthy Bodies &
Health Minds.”


CELEBRATING PARASHAT NOACH - with all our senses!!




To celebrate Parashat Noach we enjoyed a "banana boat teva, complete
with animal crackers!" We enjoyed loading the animals onto the boat,
and eating a crunchy snack! In Nursery 3, Morah Sarah's class learned
about floating and sinking. Whether it was mixing oil and water, or
placing objects in water to see if they float (or not) the three-year
olds enjoyed science related activites that tied with the Parasha. On
Friday, John Forshee from the Barnyard Express entertained us with his
array of well-trained farm animals and a farm animal show,
complimented by a petting farm, enjoyed by the Early Childhood classes
and the first and second grade classes.



Programs such as our petting zoo, and horse back rides during Purim
are made possible directly through the funds raised through Early
Childhood Challah sale! Challot can be ordered by Wednesday of each
week.
