Etzim-Israel Connection
Today Tina came into the Etzim classroom to share her wonderful connection to Israel with our children (please read Tina's blog below!). Tina shared the book she had made of her trip last year, which included photos of some students in Israel. We then traced our hands next to their hand tracings, creating virtual handshakes. Many questions followed such as "Do you think my friend plays in the snow in Israel?". Steve helped us write our Hebrew names which was followed by more discussion. We'll certainly be exploring this topic more thoroughly. Thank you, Tina!

What a great way for the children to have a concrete Israel experience without leaving Needham! Terrific idea! I need to get those photos and photograph them for a slideshow we can send to Israel, too!
