Working together with Love and Respect


In our classroom each morning we sing about loving our fellow as we love our self   In Hebrew the tenet goes like this  " veahavta lereacha kamocha ". Being kind to each other and treating each other with respect- just as we would want to be treated.  When the children are able to play and learn in this environment  they  ultimately benefit in so many ways 
• confidence
• the ability to develop good relationships with peers
• concentrating on and persisting with challenging tasks
• attending and listening to instructions
• being able to solve social problems
• effectively communicate emotions

Here are some things that happened this week.
    Motty: "Morah Estee can you help find 7?"

   Sholom: "I can help you, I'll show you,  I really know."

   (then they sat and finished the game together with the morah's help too)




 Jonah, Asher and Luba played with the magna-tiles,they built a house. Then they formed the letter P and a flag,  when they finished they were so proud of their team work that they asked me to take a picture and they even "posed " for it !



Max and Felix wanted to read books together , here is how the reading to each other went:
max: "look Felix! this is a plane with a propeller "
Felix: "look here max! in this plane the propeller is hiding (pointing at a passengers jet)"
