Our Very Own Piece of the Pie!

With all the excitement going on at Gan, inviting  the larger community to join us in our mission of "Giving Back" it was a most heartwarming moment to see our very own class participate in the ACTION we've been talking about all week!

While we thank G-d, have SO many things to be thankful for- we chose to focus on GIVING back. Expressing those feelings of gratitude into ACTION.

We are thankful for the very kind Ruth Dersh who visits us every Thursday to read books during our quiet time after lunch. This week, we asked Ruth to stay home, and if she would allow us to visit her, to bring her a Thank you card, and Pumpkin Pie!  

It was a most meaningful moment. Enjoy the pics....

We also had another opportunity this week to drive the lesson home....

It was Morah Leah's birthday- so we brought cupcakes to her office to give her!

During circle time one day we spoke about the feeling we get when we give, and the feeling we get when we receive. We all agreed how WE FEEL HAPPY, when we make SOMEONE ELSE feel happy!

Below you can see the beautiful drawings each child made, to reflect what made each of them happy, when they gave it!
