Yavneh Academy ‘Discover’ Yom Lachkor

On the first day of Chanukah, Yavneh Academy fourth and fifth graders embarked on a day of discovery—Yom Lachkor. The students were divided into groups. Each was assigned a Chanukah theme and dove into discovering various elements of their theme. Each student investigated all about the history, science and Torah perspectives of gold, oil or fire. Some of the amazing highlights included discovering how much the menorah in the Beit Hamikdash would cost if purchased at today’s gold rates, creating lava lamps from oil, stories from America’s gold rush and fireworks in milk. Students came back and reported their discoveries in their classes while munching on themed snacks. What a great day!
