The Mailman Visits Pericha!

The yiladim worked very hard on their Shana Tova cards ( I hope you have received them by now!)
While learning about the custom of wishing our friends and family Shana Tova, we did a mini postal unit. We learned what an address is and did a few activities to familiarize ourselves with our home addresses! We then learned how mail gets from one location to the next and set up a mini postal center which the yiladim thoroughly enjoyed! To wrap up our unit, we addressed our Shana Tova cards to our homes and the mailman came to pick them up and deliver them. We enjoyed seeing the mail car close up and the mailman took the time to answer the many questions we had! We will be keeping the mailbox in our classroom throughout the year, for the Yiladim to continue practicing their own and others' addresses!
