Happy New Year and Welcome GAN Families to this month’s I-Mude! Since many of you are on vacation from school at this time, why not take a free Vacation to Israel without even leaving your house- no passport required! This all inclusive travel deal is brought to you by the courtesy of the fabulous VBS I-Mude. So, let’s board the plane and get ready for take off!
First, meet “Srulik” your tour guide! Srulik is a well know Israeli cartoon character and he wants to take you on a virtual trip to Israel. Throughout the trip, you will be able to explore Israel and learn about the country’s national languages, currency, geography and food. The tour begins by clicking the Sea of Galilee in the North. Explore your way down the map until you have reached the last city Eilat.
Now, Srulik wants to have fun with you by jumping through the history of Israel game. Travel through history here. Were you ever curious what makes Israel a land that is so special? Learning about Israel is so fun, important, and easy to do. Check out some cool information and learn something new.
But wait! One of Srulik’s friends whose name is David is lost in Israel. We only have the postcards that David has sent from his trip in Israel to find out where he is. Can you use your knowledge and detective skills to find David? Play the Postcard Game now!
Of course no trip to Israel is complete unless you bring back some souvenirs and gifts for your friends and family back home. Shop for items from Israel before you go back home.
THE I-MUDE CHALLENGE (Bring this item to class for a special prize!):
Now that you had a fun time on your trip to Israel with Srulik, draw a picture of your favorite city or symbol that you learned about during your travels.
Or answer this: Where was David?
Message from your Teacher Ilana:
The Hanukkah holiday is filled with fun and light. We learned the story of Hanukkah, the blessings over the candles, sang the songs together, and heard Hanukkah stories in the library. We had a great class party- we dressed up like Greeks, Macabees, Candle’s, Driedel’s, Hanukkah Chefs, and Latkes. Thank you parents for all of the contributions!
Our upcoming class projects are our Shabbat Siddur's and our Shabbat Kit’s!
