Recent days in Tikvah have been full, new lessons, new activities, and plenty of proud moments along the way. Here's a peek at what we've been up to.

Our ECC children explored mark making by creating lines, shapes, and symbols to represent the sounds of the shofar. โœ๏ธ๐Ÿ
As they listened, they noticed that the shofar can sound like a long, steady blast, tekiah, a series of broken, trembling sounds, shevarim, or quick, staccato bursts, teruah. Children translated what they heard into marks, using their own ideas and creativity to make the sounds visible.
This experience encouraged children to express what they heard in personal and meaningful ways, showing how early writing can grow from careful listening, creative thinking, and joyful exploration.

Our Day School students started their week in a similar spirit, coming together for tefilah and listening to the shofar as a way of grounding themselves before the week ahead.

Back to School Night at Gordon School was a wonderful evening of meeting teachers, exploring classrooms, and hearing about everything the new year has in store. Thank you to every family who came out to be a part of it, which is what makes this community so special. Here's to a year of curiosity, kindness, and growth! ๐ŸŽ

Our hallways at Gordon School tell the story of what learning looks like here. From Rosh Hashanah artwork and Hebrew calendar work, to violin diagrams, watercolor Greek temples, planet models, seed dispersal research, and monster writing projects, every board is built from student work. ๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽป๐Ÿช๐ŸŒบ๐Ÿ‘พ

Each display reflects curiosity across Judaic and general studies, and the pride students take in seeing their ideas on the wall. Next time you visit, take a few extra minutes to walk the halls and see what our students have been up to.

Before we talk about what we teach, we have to ask ourselves: What do we believe about children?

During our orientation, we spent time reflecting on our Image of the Child โ€” because our practices begin with what we believe.

We believe children are empathetic, capable, and full of potential. They are little scientists who explore, question, test, discover, and make meaning of the world around them. They are creative and resourceful, playful and imaginative, expressive and honest in their feelings.

They are risk-takers with developing minds who process the world in their own unique ways. They live in the present moment. They mirror our actions, our feelings, and the way we show up for them. They need to be seen, heard, valued, and needed. They deserve our love and respect, free from judgment.

And perhaps most importantly, we believe children bring light into our lives. They shine.

The way an educator sees a child matters.

When we see a child as capable, we create opportunities for independence.
When we see a child as curious, we make space for questions.
When we see a child as competent, we trust them with meaningful responsibility.
When we see a child as creative, we protect their ideas rather than giving them ours.

Last week, we were honored to welcome Commissioner Regalado to Gordon School!

She joined us to learn more about our Tikvah program and discover what makes Gordon School and the Center for Jewish Life at Beth David such a special place to learn, grow, and belong.

Weโ€™re grateful to Commissioner Regalado and her team for taking the time to visit, listen, and learn about our vision for the future. At Gordon, we believe education goes beyond the classroom. Itโ€™s about nurturing curiosity, celebrating every childโ€™s strengths, building meaningful connections, and helping every student thrive.

Weโ€™re so proud of the community weโ€™re building and excited for all that lies ahead!

Tashlich Splash Day!

Our Gordon students had a wonderful time celebrating Tashlich with plenty of splashing, laughter, and learning! As they gathered together, they explored the meaning behind this special tradition and reflected on the opportunity for a fresh start in the new year.

From learning to getting a little wet, our students brought so much joy and ruach to this meaningful tradition.

๐ŸŒŸ Starting Our Day with a Morning Meeting! ๐ŸŒŸ

As part of our journey toward becoming a Responsive Classroom school, every classroom begins the day with a Morning Meeting at 8:30 a.m.

Morning Meeting is a fun, welcoming, and powerful way to start the day! It brings the whole class together to build community, strengthen relationships, and practice important academic and social-emotional skills in meaningful and engaging ways.

These few minutes each morning help students feel seen, connected, valued, and ready to learn. We are excited to see how this daily routine continues to strengthen our school community!

Our School Board was invited to create a self-portrait using loose parts. ๐ŸŒฑ

No model.
No directions.
No โ€œrightโ€ answer.

Instead, they explored materials, made decisions, solved problems, expressed their ideas, and discovered that there are many ways to represent themselves.

This is constructivist learning in action: actively engaging with materials, making meaning through exploration, testing ideas, and building understanding through the process.

At Gordon, we believe children learn best when they have opportunities to create, take risks, think flexibly, and make their own discoveries.
