Creation was in the air today!
As we gear up for Hanukah we created our very own Menorahs in ceramics.
As we continue in our classroom with our exploration of stories, we discussed the Creation Story. We listened first and then decided to try our hand at acting it out... with great success!
We wiggled our way throughout the seven days of creation, from water to sky and sun, to animals of the land and sea.
After taking a singing break with Paul, we returned to our stories. Kids split up into three groups to illustrate the days and creation.
Group 1 covered Days 1-3 (the creation of light, day and night, sky, water and land), Group 2 covered Day 4 (the creation of the sun and moon) and Group 3 explored Day 5 (the creation of sea creatures and birds). Next week we will continue to explore Days 6 and 7.
Next week we will also continue to explore stories as we continue to think about upcoming Hanukah as well as our own stories and storytelling unit with Joyce.
