חג השבועות שמח

HAPPY SHAVUOT!

Welcome to our Shavuot Curriculum!  This year, Shavuot falls on May 28-29, 2020. 

​Here you will find stories, songs, cooking ideas, and other activities related to Shavuot.  The Jewish holiday of Shavuot comes seven weeks after Passover and commemorates the Jewish people being given the Torah at Mount Sinai.  It is also a harvest festival.  For more information on Shavuot, click here.

Click on a box below for each story and then click on the button below the story to access the activities.  Each activity button is labeled with one of the five names of the holiday of Shavuot.  Choose one book and set of activities a day for a full week of Shavuot fun!  (Did you know that the word Shavuot means weeks!)  Be sure to check out the Extras! below.
