The Tel Aviv class has been working hard to prepare for our big trip to Israel to celebrate Yom Ha'atzmaut, Israel's birthday! We are leaving tomorrow for our big trip and in order to prepare we have been working on designing, and decorating a plane, creating passports and making Israeli flags! Today we spent a lot of time looking at and creating passports. I brought in my own passport and we saw that it said United States of America on the front and inside it had lots of different information about me in it. It had my full name (which a lot of kids were surprised to learn!) my birthday, my birth place and a picture! We then worked hard to create our own passports with information we thought was important. They included each child's name and picture, some included birthday and many children wanted to be measured to include their heights! It was neat to work with each child individually to help them create a passport that was meaningful to them. Each of them spent a lot of time writing both numbers and letters and their final products were quite impressive. Furthermore, they were so proud of their product and the work that they had accomplished. Tomorrow they will bring the passports with them on the plane and they will get a special stamp when we arrive in Israel! Shalom friends! See you when we return!!
