STOCK MARKET GAME WINNERS
 Yavneh Academy placed FIRST in this year's fall Stock Market Game.
The seventh grade winning team of Pamela Abraham, Avery Penn, Rebecca Weinberger, Captain Binyamin Novetsky, and their coach, Mr. Howard Goldberg, attended a luncheon for the winners this week at the Pershing Center in Jersey City, where they presented their award winning investment strategy.
The children turned $100,000 into $117,200 in 10 short weeks. Their key winning companies of Hertz and RSC Holdings propelled them into first place out of 300 competing teams from schools across NJ.
All children in grade 7 spend many weeks in math class learning about the economy and the stock market including terms such as dividends, commission, and short selling. This is reviewed as their stock holdings are analyzed by teachers during the ten week game.

In art class, the fifth graders created mandalas using their names. In Sanskrit, the word mandala means "circle," and in art it is a symbol of unity and harmony because they often exhibit radial symmetry and balance. Some students chose to disguise their names with intricate patterns while other names are more clearly identifiable.

My name is Stephanie Appelbaum, and I am in fifth grade. For my Bat Mitzvah chesed project, I am collecting art supplies for ArtWorks (www.artworksfoundation.org). This organization provides children and young adults suffering from chronic and life-threatening illnesses, and their siblings, access to creative and performing arts programs. I am working with the Surprise!Supplies part of the program which delivers art supplies in colorful boxes and carts to kids while they are in the hospital for treatment. The art supplies help kids keep busy and happy while in the hospital.
ArtWorks needs donations of coloring books, glitter glue, watercolors, model magic, individual craft kits and boxes of crayons, markers and colored pencils. All items must be new, unopened, and non-toxic.
Please help make my project a success by placing your donation in the specially marked box outside of the education office. Thank you for your support. |
