Temple Sinai David Pregerson Preschool

We had a joyful Lag BaOmer celebration today complete with a felt board story from Teacher Jane and a yummy s'mores treat 🔥

We ended our week with a special group hug for Rabbi Bressler who led her final preschool community shabbat at Sinai today. Thank you for loving, teaching, and guiding our TSDPP crew 💛

We celebrated Yom Ha'atzmaut today with a Birthday Party for Israel. Students danced to Israeli music, made flags and passports, learned a new hebrew song, and enjoyed yummy Israeli treats including homemade hummus prepared by our Perachim class. Happy 78th Birthday 🇮🇱

Our students have been building a beautiful tradition of creating monthly self-portraits, each one reflecting their growth, creativity, and evolving sense of self.

This month, we explored a new medium—wool! From soft textures to layered colors, students experimented with different techniques to bring their portraits to life in a whole new way.

Join us in our Family Center at Temple Sinai for a mother/birthing parent support group Thursday's 10:00am-11:30am
May 7-June 25
Becoming a parent is a profound shift unlike any other and is often filled with more complexity than expected. This 8-week group offers a warm, supportive space to connect, share the full range of experiences and emotions that come with these first few months, and feel held as you navigate life with your new baby. Open to moms/birthing parents and babies ages 0-6 months.
Facilitator: Dr Jessica Deitch

Our Perachim and Shemesh classrooms led their very own Passover Seder this morning. They beautifully told the story of how the Jews came out of Egypt through prayer, song, and of course food! We are so proud of the hard work and dedication they displayed in preparing for this day.

Passover prep is in full swing. Our oldest students are preparing to lead Seder, making their own pillows, creating Haggadot, and learning the four questions. While our younger friends are immersed in sensory experiences and seder plate exploration.

We had a blast at the Temple Sinai Community Purim Carnival Today!

Purim is coming! Our students have boarded their train to Shushan, masks in hand, and homemade Hamantaschen ready to eat.
