Simchat Torah

Simchat Torah

 Simchat Torah is a joyous Yom Tov. 

All year long, when the Rabbi comes to shul he takes 

the Torah out of the Aron Kodesh and reads a portion of

it every week. It tells of great stories with wonderful

lessons to learn from. It also tells of all the mitzvos 

(commandments) we can keep.

Simchat Torah is a happy time celebrating the 

completion of the reading from the Torah and for the 

continuation of its reading all over again right after this 

yom tov.

 Shira found the letter ש (shin) for Shira.

How do we celebrate? We go to shul and dance with

the Torah and flags and sing pleasant and cheerful

songs. 

We made flags to dance with for Simchas Torah. 

We decorated the flag with water paint.

 We practiced singing and dancing with our flags.

We then enjoyed baking cookies in different shapes.

We hope that you all enjoy the holiday, and will 

come back to school energized to continue learning and 

exploring new things
