A Story For Tu B’Shevat – Our Tree Named Steve
Happy Tu B’Shevat! It is such a joy to celebrate and honour trees. Our story today is ‘Our Tree Named Steve’ by Alan Zweibel and David Catrow.
Activity: Make a Steve!
This lovely and simple craft uses just a paper towel roll and some cardboard and paint. Make sure to give your tree lots of personality… I recommend adding lots of colour, pompoms, and maybe even some Googly eyes!
JDAIM Storytime – We Belong
To help us celebrate Jewish Disability Awareness, Acceptance, & Inclusion month, we are reading the book We Belong by Laura Purdie Salas and illustrated by Carlos Velez Aguilera.
Inclusion Activity: Poem Template
The author of We Belong, Laura Purdie Salas, has created a wonderful poem template activity that you can use in the classroom that will enable each student to compose their own poem. For younger students, you could work together as a class.
