Trip to the NY Aquarium Part 1

We sat inside one of the education rooms at the aquarium and listened to our instructor. She showed
us how a hermit crab finds a new shell whenever it outgrows its present shell. She showed us models of other crustaceans and how they were different and similar to the hermit crab.


Here we are looking at the progression in size of  shells that a hermit crab will try to find as it grows larger.




We are looking at a real hermit crab and watching as it crawls around the bowl.



Seahorses and other hermit crabs










A real walrus' tusk!
After we learned about the hermit crab we went into the regular aquarium building 




Special treat from France: Baguette!

When Morah Mushky G. returned from France she brought a little of France with her! She brought French bread called Baguette and we had it for snack! It was delicious!!!!

Project

At the end of our Science unit on weather we made wind socks. We took them out one day during recess and it was very windy and we were able to see which way the wind was blowing! It was so cool!







Trip to Matzoh Factory Part 2



We are listening to the story of the plagues Hashem brought on the Egyptians and of the Jews leaving Egypt.





Here is "Moses" (our very own Moshe) leading the Children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
