Kindergarten visits the GRTW Academy Construction Site!

The Kindergarten class read a story about a boy who goes with his father to work on a construction site where they are building a new school! To bring this story to life the class took a visit to our own Gottesman RTW Academy construction site, where they were able to see real life machines, trucks, and construction workers just like they had learned about in their story.

A Visit to the "Seeing Eye"

After reading the story Mom’s Best Friend, a story about a mother from Pennsylvania,   who went to the "Seeing Eye" in Morristown to train with her new guide dog, the fifth grade took a trip to see the facility. The children met several instructors and a blind woman who told them about her own training with her guide dog, Becca. The class saw a video about the history of the Seeing Eye and got a chance to see the dining room and obstacle course that are used to train the dogs with their owners.

The fifth graders happily donated their own money and bought toys and treats for the guide dogs at the Seeing Eye.

Trip to the Jewish Children's Museum

This week our 4th and 5th graders took a field trip to the Jewish Children's Museum in Brooklyn.  The incredible museum is overflowing with hands-on exhibits, focusing on Jewish holidays, biblical history and the land of Israel, all bringing Jewish culture and history to life.  From being contestants in a game of Jewish Jeopardy to crawling through a "life-sized" challah, our students loved this museum experience and had great stories to share when they returned to school!

Mary Poppins on Broadway!

Last night, the 4^th-8^th graders ventured to NYC to see Mary Poppins on Broadway!! The students (and chaperones) loved the show and had so much fun experiencing the excitement of New York City theater together.

Check out some of the Mary Poppins “photo shoots” the students took!

5th Graders Mosey around Monsey

The 5^th grade took their annual field trip to Monsey, NY where they experienced a local community infused with Jewish culture and tradition.  With our very own Rabbi Hami, a native Monsey-er, as their guide, the students were exposed to all the best Jewish “hot-spots” in town…From the kosher bakery, to the kosher supermarket, to the kosher butchery, the students saw it all! They even had a special scavenger hunt in Shoprite where they had to scout out all of the kosher food in stock; the options were endless! The trip ended with some delicious kosher pizza and the students went home with happy stomachs and smiles on their faces. Make sure to ask your 5^th graders about their favorite of the trip!
