Our Digestive System

This week in the Purple room we learned about the digestive system, and how our food travels through our body.
Our friends learned that we eat food with our mouth, we break the food down with our teeth, and we have saliva that makes our food smooth so that it can go down our esophagus smoothly. Our friends got to feel their esophagus in their neck and learn that the esophagus connects our mouth to our stomach where the food gets broken down even more because of the gastric juices in our stomachs.  After the stomach the food moves to the small intestine and the large intestine. We tried to build a digestive system in class using pipes and Morah D used a small rock to show how it moves inside the pipes.

Share Day this week was all about the letter B. 
(Direct quotes from each child below)
Ben brought in his Batman suit that had lots of black and yellow on it.  We had a special guest, Jemma from the Blue Room, who loves batman so she came for share to see Ben in his Batman outfit.  We all got to try the costume on, thank you Ben for sharing!  Vella brought in basil that grows in her backyard. It was green and she cooks with it.  Shimmy brought in his book that he read to the class, we all laughed because of all the oops in the story.  Nosson brought in his boat. It’s his bath toy that he shares with Bayla and Nosson got his boat from "before he was born".  Nechama brought in a bear toy that had fur but not real fur, she drew on the bottom of her bears feet so that she knew it was hers and not Dovid’s. Nechama bought her bear from target if anyone wants one.

In this week's parsha of Toldos we learn about how Yitchak and Rivkah had twins, Yaakov and Aisav. Yitzchak loved to learn and Aisav loved to hunt and play games. One day Yaakov was making a delicious lentil soup, Aisav came home and was very hungry and asked Yakov if he can have some. Yakov said sure in exchange for the Bracha of the first born, Aisav agreed.  Yitchak was getting older and it was time for him to give the first born bracha. He called in Aisav to tell him, Aisav was so excited so he went out to make a meal for his father. Meanwhile Rivka told Yaakov about this and told him to dress up like Aisav so that Yitzchak will give him the Bracha. When Yaakov went in Yitchak said you feel like Aisav but you have the voice of Yaakov, so he gave him the Bracha of the firstborn.  We made lentil soup this week just like Yaakov did in the parsha!

Shabbat Shalom
