BPY Celebrates Rosh Hashanah

Which apple do the BPY PRE-K students prefer—Red Delicious, Granny Smith or Golden Delicious? As the children continued to prepare for Rosh Hashanah, they excitedly participated in an apple taste test. Each child was given a slice of a Red Delicious apple, a green Granny Smith apple and a yellow Golden Delicious apple. They were also given both honey and sugar to dip their apples in. After they enjoyed their sweet treat, the children chose their favorite type of apple and worked together to create an apple graph. The Golden Delicious apple was the crowd favorite! Preschool students were also treated to special family guests who taught them about the traditions and skills of blowing the shofar. The students were also able to listen and differentiate the sounds of the shofar—sounds that the Jewish people around the world have been hearing for generations and generations. BPY values this ideology and tries to incorporate inter-generational and inter-age activities as much as possible.
