From the desk of our S.T.E.A.M. Lab This week in STEAM we wrapped up our dinosaur unit. The kids enjoyed making dino prints in the play-dough and becoming paleontologists as they dug out dinosaur bones and fossils. Kindergarten also stepped in to put the finishing touches on the mural! Layla Lavan For the third year in a row, we celebrated the special relationships forged between our high school students and the residents at The Medallion Assisted Living Facility. This year, students planned a ' Layla Lavan, ' or White Night, to culminate the year. If you are interested in supporting this amazing program next year, please click here .

HS Judaic Siyum Every May the high school gathers for a festive celebration of all the Torah that we have collectively learned this year. Our annual ' siyum ' (completion) allows students and teachers to reflect on the highlights of our learning and share divrei torah (talks on Torah) with friends while consuming good food. Hot and Spicy Mishna Rabbi Block's 6th Grade Mishna Class recently learned the laws about making Brachot (blessings) on food mixtures. Additionally, the class learned a Mishna that a Bracha (Blessing) is only recited on water that is intended to quench one's thirst, as opposed to taking a pill or removing a sharp flavor from one's mouth. To illustrate this Halacha (law) , the class had a spicy chip challenge to see whose mouth could handle the most heat. Water was provided (no Bracha of course!).

Avukat Or On Sunday members of our wonderful Jewish community came together to compete in a 3 on 3 charity basketball tournament to support Avukat Or, a home in Israel for blind adults with disabilities. The tournament was organized by 10th grader Ohad Tessler and took place in RMBA's gym. LS Torah Fair What better way to celebrate the culmination of our Judaic Studies learning than with our Annual Torah Fair! Students showcased projects that they worked on all year, as well as specific research projects for the fair. Parents, family, and friends enjoyed family learning together with our Kindergarten through 5th grade students through the Generation Sinai Pro ject. Click here to see the event in action.

Aleph Bet Siyum Mazal Tov to our EC4 students moving on to Kindergarten!
