The Oak children baked round challah with Mrs. Georgia. They made the dough on Thursday. Mrs. Georgia showed the children how the yeast and water interact and bubble. The children took turns adding ingredients to make the dough. Each child helped to stir the mix to form the dough. Then on Friday, the children used the dough to create round challah. The school smelled so good while the challah was baking!
Round challah is a traditional good eaten on Rosh Hashanah. Rabbi Birnhack shared these reasons for why we eat round challah:
- On Rosh Hashanah we ask for goodness without an end. Round can go on and on.
- The Wheel of Fortune.
- On Rosh Hashanah we are allocated our income for the upcoming year.
- Round is the shape of the crown for Hashem.
- There Is One Hashem so one long braid.
