After returning from winter break, students at Louisville Beit Sefer Yachad (LBSY) have been making preparations for Tu B’Shevat. Students in grades 3-7 have been creating activities for other students to participate in as part of their chugim (interest groups) during the midweek Hebrew school sessions. Students have been creating stop-motion animations, computer-generated cartoons, a giant map of Israel game board, videos, a cookbook and an original play for activities and presentations for the rest of the students during the school’s January 24 Tu B’Shevat celebration.
Moving forward our chugim in February will all be on the theme of Shabbat as LBSY create items for Shabbat observance and reflect upon the meaning of Shabbat.
