Early Childhood Center
Recycling, Ecology and Tikun Olam at Beth El The ECC classes celebrated Tu B’Shvat, the Birthday of the Trees, in the middle of January. It was a wonderful opportunity to teach the children about how recycling can help save trees and prevent plastic from filling the landfills. Each day, the children are now placing the used paper and empty bottles in the yellow cans in the hallway- noting with pleasure how much they are helping repair the world – the mitzvah of Tikun Olam.
Afternoon Extra Curricular Classes a Huge Success What do Karate, Art, Science, Dance and Soccer have in common? They are all 8 session age appropriate afternoon extracurricular classes offered at the ECC- designed so that parents can avoid the hassle of another carpool.. In addition, for the first time, we offered a class entitled “Itsy Bitsy Dance and Movement” specially designed for our two and a half year old students. It was a great success as were all the other courses classes. Parent and Teachers – a unique force at Congregation Beth El In the ECC’s mission statement it states “Our vision is to provide a quality, developmentally appropriate program, which actively engages and excites young children, while reaching beyond its modern facility to involve the home, the family, the synagogue, and the community. “ This vision of home, family etc all involved together is implemented through many, various ways. Parent Teacher conferences are one of these way. They are held a few times a year to insure that parents and teachers set aside a specific time to discuss the development of the children. Another avenue is our Parent Teacher Group , allowing staff and parents to share ideas and activities. Special programs, lunches hosted by the PTG and special Fun Days give our ECC community additional opportunities to get to know one another. The special efforts and ability to meld school and home as one community in such a successful way makes the Early Childhood Center a unique and exciting place to be. Tell your friends and family to join us.
Passover is in the Air The end of March 2010 will bring an early Passover even if it doesn’t bring an early spring. The children in the ECC will be learning how to bake Matzo, how many plagues there were and how many cups of wine to drink. It is always a busy and productive time in our classrooms and we look forward to marching out of Egypt and crossing the Red Sea as April begins. Hope you have a wonderful Pesach too!
Registration applications are still being accepted for Camp “N” Kids 2010 and for Preschool and Day Care classes beginning September 2010. Call Roselee Redelheim at 675-1166 for information and to tour the facilities.
