This week, the students had the opportunity to read about the famous encounter between God and Moshe at the burning bush. We read the text together, and then created skits to reenact this amazing, awe-inspiring experience. Still to come- what will Moshe's reaction be to this encounter, and will he be excited to become the savior of the Jewish people. Here is a question to think about: Why did God choose to come in the form of a burning bush to Moshe? What does this symbolize? How is this image a metaphor for the experience of the Jewish people in Egypt?
In lashon, we have been working on the past tense- student scan now talk about what is happening and what has happened!! Kol hakavod to everyone for picking up a difficult concept so quickly!
Torah Project continues to roll along: this week, we checked out a great website that has a video summary of each parshah, with pictures and songs. Check it out at www.g-dcast.com
What a fabulous experience it has been working with this group of 5th graders- I am looking forward to another great week!
Shabbat Shalom
Eliana
