Writing Rosh Hashanah cards for their parents was not only a fun art activity, it also taught the 1st graders the value of bringing joy to others.
5th graders are connecting concepts of Rosh Hashanah via a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors. The concepts are integrated as they relate to Rosh Hashanah.
Rabbi Dave Silverman from the Atlanta Scholars Kollel, gave a shuir in 8th grade on the halachos of shofar blowing.
Kindergarteners performed for their parents and grandparents, singing songs for Rosh Hashanah. Hashem is the Kking of the World, they sang!
In STEAM collaborating students in kindergarten are designing a variety of objects: an elephant, a camera, etc., from a plain box and toilet paper/paper towel tubes.
In math, the 6th grade girls determined the ratio of tea to water for one cup and then multiplied it to make enough tea to serve the entire class and their teacher, of course!
2nd Graders "Write the Room"
During this activity, sentences were posted around the classroom and the second graders traveled from sentence to sentence, re-writing the sentence on their clipboard and then identifying the noun and verb in the sentence. The students were engaged in their “vertical” learning and are happy to move around the classroom while also learning the parts of speech.
 
Kindergarteners Examine Horns in STEAM Class
Kindergarten and first grade classes had the opportunity to examine horns from a variety of animals during their STEAM class. Which ones make the best shofar? How would you determine that? By its shape? Length? Color? Texture? All good questions.
Flashback!
TDSA's Rosh Hashanah Sing-a-Long has been a tradition for many years. This photo was taken TWELVE years ago. What are these guys up to now? Do you think they remember the songs they learned in Keetah K? You can bet on it!
