Welcome Back !!!

On behalf of the entire Akiva Academy staff we would like to welcome all of our students back for the 2009-2010 school year.

Our sixth grade students would like to introduce themselves to you.

Have a Safe and Enjoyable Summer

Hope you are enjoying the summer months with your family and friends.

We look forward to you returning to Akiva for our first day back on August 24th.

Science Dissections

During the last few weeks several grades have been working on dissections in Science Class. Mrs. Katz has worked with the students as they dissect frogs, crayfish and fetal pigs.

What an outstanding elementary school science curriculum!!!

Here sixth graders examine the fetal pig.

Lag Ba'Omer Picnic

Today, with sunshine overhead, we went outside for a Lag ba'Omer picnic lunch.
Thanks to Mrs. Schonberger for obtaining all of the food items...and...for cooking the hot dogs for us.
Thanks also goes out to the parents who were there to assist us during the lunch period.

Earth Day

Mrs. Katz, our Science teacher, had her classes involved in several special activities today for Earth Day. Here the 4th grade students are demonstrating how fragile the Earth is by throwing an egg (colored to depict the Earth).
Dirt cake and H2O were also eaten as part of the Earth Day celebration.

Here students toss an egg, (colored as the earth) back and forth, attempting to catch and protect it at all costs.

Maddie's Earth is safe....

... Here Amanda's Earth has been destroyed.
