SUKKOT starts four days later in the evening. Jews spend time in a Sukkah, a four walled structure with a roof made of vegetation that allows some exposure of the elements and that will last for the holiday.(branches, bamboo etc.) It represents the living conditions while the Jews traveled in the desert, relying on God’s protection, before they entered the land of Israel.
This week, our class has begun discussing Sukkot. Today, the children learned about the Lulav and Etrog during davening with Rabbi Grossbaum. The children practiced shaking the lulav and etrog and sang a song about it. In the afternoon, our middle school buddies visited and helped the Oak children build sukkahs.
