JKHA brought Torah to life for its students as they studied parshat Noach. Early childhood and first grade greeted a petting zoo as the school’s youngest students learned about the animals that Noach had on the teiva. Pre-k classes held mabul parties at which they dressed for the weather, sang songs and played learning games. Some of the hands-on educational activities included seeing a rainbow by looking through colored water bottles and experimenting with items to see whether or not they would float or sink.

Early childhood and lower school were bursting with the colors of the rainbow all week long as students marked parshat Noach and dressed for a “week of many colors,” with a different theme of colors each day of the week from school-spirit orange and blue and Rosh Chodesh blue and white to tie dye, green and orange.
