Tel Aviv's Mezuzah Walk!



The Tel Aviv class will be spending a lot of time this week learning about, and making, their very own mezuzot! Their mezuzah exploration started with a class "mezuzah walk" around the temple. Together we found 11 mezuzahs. Many of which we different materials and had different colors and designs on them. It was so great to see their excitement after each time they found another mezuzah. We learned that even though mezuzot may look different from the outside each one has the same prayer on the inside and the Hebrew letter Shin on the outside. Tomorrow we will start making our own mezuzot out of sculpey!
