Mock Wedding at Gan!

This week's Torah Portion "Chayei Sara" tells the story of the Marriage of Yitzchak (Isaac) & Rivka (Rebecca.)
In this spirit, we held a MOCK WEDDING in our classroom on Thursday!

The way we introduced this story, was by telling the famous story of Avraham sending his messenger Eliezer to look for a wife for his son Yitzchak.

Through a puppet show the children learned the story of Rivka at the well, offering water to Eliezer's camels.



Now that the children understood that Rivka was going to be the wife of Yitzchak, we planned for a Mock Wedding to celebrate!

When the children arrived, the decorated classroom (Wedding Hall) put everyone into a festive mood!


Bridal Party included: Chaya- Bride, Noah- Groom, Rachel- mother of the Bride, Mendel- father of the Groom, Yitzy- Zaidy & Rabbi, Ellah- flower girl & Baker, Menucha- Mommy of Groom, Brocha Leba- Bobby!
