This week in Shalom Chaverim was all about exploring hanukkiyot in all shapes and sizes.
There were real hanukkiyot, and candles for us to fit inside (a work out for our fine motor strength and control) and count on English and Hebrew. We are figuring out together that all the Hanukkiyah we found hold the same number of neirot.
Then we set out to build our own hanukkiyot…
With magna-files
And even play dough.
We continued exploring the shapes and symbols of Hanukkah together as we made sugar cookies in the shape of more hanukkiyot, and dreidels.
We are learning the language to talk about the holiday, and are exploring together with our friends and families.
