DAY 54 (Nov 23) Judaism's Most Beloved Celebrations

Today we introduced the topic of celebration in our study of Judaism.  Here's a handout for the assignment, Judaism's Celebrations.  All cultures and religions celebrate rites of passage (Bar/Bat Mitzvah), historic events (Passover) and other important aspects of what makes the culture or religion special, so everyone will "teach" the class about a special event on the Jewish "calendar".

We also played the telephone game where, in teams, you texted questions to team members and they texted back the answers after finding the answers online - I've never heard our group so quiet and attentive to getting it all done, it was great!  We didn't quite finish today, so tomorrow will be the finish and I'll post all of the Q & A on tomorrow's blog entry.
