For Jewish American Heritage Month, one of our Grade 7 students, Noa, took the lead in sharing a meaningful tradition with our Kindergarten students. Noa coordinated with teachers, created a presentation, and taught students about the hora, a traditional Israeli dance. After explaining the history and significance of the hora, she taught the Kindergarteners how to perform the steps while holding hands and moving together in a circle. Noa said she felt like the hora was the perfect introduction to Israeli dance because it’s uplifting, fun, and easy for younger students to learn. We are so proud of Noa for taking the initiative to share an important part of her heritage by creating a memorable learning experience for our Kindergarteners!
