Chametz Or Not Chametz

In Class on Friday we discussed chametz vs. not chametz. The children knew that chametz were food items such bread, crackers, and bagels. We also learned that not chametz were things such as fruit and vegetables.
We then played a game where the children reached into a pillowcase and pulled out a food item. A piece of red tape had been placed to divided the circle time rug in half. After each child picked and item out, he or she had to make the decision if it was chametz, something that some of us to do not eat on Passover, or not chametz which is those things we eat and put it on the appropriate side of the rug. The children had fun reaching into the pillowcase and supporting each other in their chametz vs. not chametz decision.
