Tu B’Shvat in the Fifth Grade




My elementary school memory of Tu B’Shvat is of eating dried out figs and dates and breaking my teeth on Carob (Buxcer in Yiddish). We have come a long way since when I was in elementary school. This week the class worked on and presented PowerPoint presentations. Most of the presentations were about the Shivat HaMinim but we had one on Trees and one on recycling. Everyone did a great job.

Today Mrs. Wittlin and Yocheved did a Tu B’Shvat Seder with the class. Each student participated and had a part to play in the Seder. Thank you to Mrs. Wittlin and Yocheved for putting this together.

As you can see we have come a long way from dried figs and carob
