On the eve of Erev Sukkot

The bible series will start with the 5 books of the torah. It will be a very textual approach dealing with the stories of the bible straight from the text. You can teach the stories any way you see fit (but don't let your kids miss out on hearing the rich language of the bible). There will be plenty of opportunities for copy work from the bible and some thought questions as well. There will be lots of fun dessert suggestions to strengthen what you've learned. In our household we have a special dessert each week which has to do with the bible portion we learned that week. The children either have fun making the dessert with me or they have to guess the connection to the bible.
My kids are going to make the gingerbread Sukkah once again. It’s become a family tradition in our house after my children won first place with that Sukkah in our local Sukkah making contest.
Hope to hear from you soon.
