On Monday, the students learned about the connection between the story of the akedah and our celebration of Rosh Hashanah. We had a very interesting conversation about what lessons we can take from that story and apply to our own lives today. If you would like to view the video we watched, you can find it below:

They also made Rosh Hashanah cards to give to family and friends--I hope you enjoyed them!
