ome Into
Our Tent!

ach week, students in Rivkah Nachlas' kindergarten class at Yeshi-
vat Akiva learn the Torah portion of the week, then get to make a
fun project focusing on that parsha.
Seated at tables just the right size, the children paste, cut, color and
use their imaginations 'to create stones, animals and puppets (Esau on
one side, Jacob on the other). Gee, do you have to be a kid to come
to this class, or is it open to adults, too?
