Last Day Celebrations - Some Pictures!



After organizing and cleaning our classroom, the last day finally came... We had a double party! We celebrated our last Star Party (which we patiently earned), and celebrated the end of a great year...and the beginning of more growing and learning to come! We did some reflective activities, and then had lots of fun... We decorated summer cooler-cups, and enjoyed fresh popcorn and delicious doughnuts...what more could you ask for? We received award-ribbons for Homework Honor Roll, and presented Rachel with a fantastic trophy for reading 25 books in the Book Challenge and completing all 25 Book Reviews. Hurray for 4th-5th Graders' hard work! We each received a class collage as a memento.

We'd be remiss if we didn't mention the 2nd Grade's Cafe that we joined for lunch - thanks to all the Yeladim in 2nd Grade we enjoyed a hearty Israeli lunch. There were handwritten, colorful menus at each table, quick wait-staff, and all the amenities...Enjoy the pictures:-)

Here's what Morah told us before we left:
Dear Students,
Just a note to say
How much I’ve enjoyed teaching you
Each in your own way

We spent all year together
Week by week, day by day
It seems so strange that now we go
Each on our own way

Each of us, the Sages say,
Is likened to a treasure,
Whose value, depth, and beauty
We can never really measure

I’m sure that you, the treasures
Will positively shine and glow
Sparkling with confidence
As you learn and grow

As we head on into summer
And think of fun and games
Remember all the good times here
And hopefully all you’ve gained!

I hope your summer is fantastic
Healthy, and safe, too
And best wishes for next year
Good luck, so long, I’ll miss you!
