From pumpkin projects to autumnal attire, the HAMC hallways were overflowing with the fall spirit this week!
Today our students dressed in the rich autumnal colors of orange, red, and brown and some even came in full feather headpieces, taking on the Thanksgiving spirit!
Earlier in the week, our ECC had a special unit on the Hebrew word for the color "orange"..."Katom!" The morning involved science, cooking, and art! First, all of the students sat in a circle and got to pick out special "katom" items from a special bag. Then they moved to the "magic table" where they became scientists as they watched red dye and yellow dye magically turn into orange dye! Last, but not least, our very own Chef Wolf impressively cut open a big "katom" pumpkin and our students got to see and feel what the inside of a fresh pumpkin looks and feels like. Then, as a class, the students decorated the outside of the pumpkin with markers and crayons. Who knew learning about the color orange could be so much fun!
