Morah Tzivie reading a story about Shavuot.

Morah Katie: We are getting closer to our holiday.  What holiday have we been counting up to?

Morah Katie: Why did Hashem give us the Torah?

Makayah: Because He loves us.

Morah Katie: What is in the Torah?

Evan: It's full of mitzvahs.

Morah Katie: What are some mitzvahs you can do?

Shoshi: Listening to family.

Eli: Listening to mom and dad.

Moshe: Helping.

Ozzie: Playing kindly without hitting.

Lochlan: Doing all the chores your mom and dad would do if it was just you at home.

Morah Katie: Why did Hashem give us the Torah on Mt. Sinai?

Lochlan: He didn't brag.

Morah Katie: What was Mt. Sinai doing?

Friends are creating Mt. Sinai in the sandbox.
"He isn't bragging, he is just being nice."

Morah Katie: Hashem chose to give us the Torah on a mountain so we would remember to be strong to make good choices, and proud of those choices.  What are good choices you can be proud of?

Makayah: Being kind and speaking with kind words.

children's Torahs.
We appreciated his thoughtfulness.
