\"\"Five-year-old Bella\u2019s stream of consciousness remarks upon returning home from kindergarten: <\/strong><\/span>“Savta<\/em> \u2013 do you know the parsha?\u00a0<\/em>It\u2019s Va\u2019eirah<\/em>. Do any parshiot<\/em> that rhyme with it? We made three pages in our Hagaddah t<\/em>oday. Pesach<\/em> is not until three months from now, February, March, and April when it\u2019s my birthday and Jett\u2019s. But the story is in the parsha,<\/em> so we are making some pages now and maybe more next week for ten plagues, even frogs. (And we sang Pesach <\/em>songs, and the frog songs, but not dayenu…\u00a0<\/em>what other Pesach<\/em> songs do you know, Savta<\/em>?) Then we will not work on our Hagadda<\/em>h but we will start again before Pesach. Our Hagaddah<\/em> will have lots of pages and I will bring it to your house for the Seder<\/em> and will we spilt the sea and will cousin Alex dress up as Eliyahu <\/em>again?”<\/span><\/p>\n

While digesting this information, I thought about the teacher\u2019s time management brilliance. After all, those haggadot, afikoman<\/em> bags, Kiddush <\/em>cups, jumping frogs, baby Moshe <\/em>baskets, and matzah <\/em>covers do not rain down from the shamayim <\/em>like man!<\/em> The multitude of projects is only one part of any kindergarten teacher\u2019s pre-Pesach to-do list. Teaching the Exodus narrative and the story of nation building, on a kindergarten level, takes dedication, creativity, and time!<\/span><\/p>\n

As you look ahead to Tu b’Shevat, Purim,<\/em> and Pesach<\/em> – I wish you a calendar full of dynamic learning experiences.
