This week we continued learning about Lab B'omer. This week we dedicated it to Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai. A very special Rabbi who discovered the Kabbalah and passed away on Lag B'omer.
Menachem practicing to write Lag B'omer on his playdough.
Its been so inspiring to watch the children really want to know ALL the details of the story. We learned a lot about why he had to run away from the Roman Emperor to a cave.
Creating salt dough caves and turning our table into a cave.

After learning all the details of the story we created our own cave scene.

Since Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai and his son Rabbi Elazar were in the cave for 13 years they needed to preserve their one pair of clothes.
They would bury themselves in the sand to cover themselves so they wouldn't need to wear their clothes all the time.
Our friends working really hard on a big enough hole!

Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai learned all day and night and brought new Torah in this world.
Their Torah brought light in this world.
We make bonfires to remember the holy fiery Torah light.
Coloring our playdough to make fire for a pretend bonfire.

We had so much fun experimenting how wax melts using heat.
We melted fire color crayons using blow dryers.
It came out so cool and fascinating!

To celebrate learning in depth the entire story of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai we made our very own bon fire! Thank you Friedmans for lending it to us!

It has been so heartwarming to continue watching our friends practically use the Sefiras we have learned.
A lot of Chesed with friends sharing toys and using communication to take turns.

This week we learned about Netzach! To finish a job and to keep our commitments.
Batya and Menachem started cleaning and it was challenging to finish all the rubber bands everywhere, but they did it!
Yanky, Shmuel and Sholom committed themselves to make sure the Lego area was fully clean for our meeting time.

Occasionally, we get to go to the back of our school building where there are big sticks.
We make sure to commit ourselves to safety and follow through till the end of our break time.

We introduced the Nikuda Shuruk which has the same sound as a Koobootz.
We made uugah- which means cake in hebrew and you can really hear the Shuruk sound.

Having fun at our Kriya table by reading the word the bubble lands on and using playdough to cover the correct sound we hear.
