Noah and the Ark

In the Second Portion of Parshat Bereishit, the Torah tells us the story of Noah and the Ark. G-d tells Noah to build an ark, for G-d would be destroying the world except for those who were inside the boat. Noah worked for 120 years to build it. He wanted people to see him working and ask about it. He would then have the opportunity to tell them G-d's plan to destroy the world. Through this, Noah would try to get the people to return from their sins.

 The Ark had three levels. The top for the people, middle for the animals, and bottom for the trash. The children played pin Noah on the Ark to place him in the correct spot on the Ark.

 Creating an edible version of Noah's Ark was fun, but also helped review the concepts learnt about the Ark.

Learning from Noah, the children discussed different scenarios of times we see friends doing something that is not the correct thing to do. It is important to stand up for whats right and in a kind way, show others how to do things in a proper way.
