Like you, I've seen the passport and pretend flight and think it is very sweet for the young kids. What fell into place with the seventh graders is sublime. You couldn't have planned it any better. I've taught 4 year olds and have asked for their experiences. Some children had already been and could relate personal adventures. I would tell them how lucky they are to have had that opportunity already. I'd bring in Israeli coins and they like looking and touching that, brought in a globe so that we could find our town Tulsa, OK and then turn the globe to see Israel on the other side. It was my teen assisstant that was suprised to see how small that big little country actually is. Lynn Shirley (retired and living in St. Louis, MO.)
