Tu B'Shvat

http://www.torahtots.com/holidays/tubshvat/tubshvat.htm

Tu B’shvat is a holiday for the trees. On this holiday we eat lots of tree-grown fruits, like dates, figs, pomegranates, carob, olives, and grapes.  We donate money to Israel to plant trees throught the J.N.F. We talk about taking good care of our planet.

 These are the seven species of the land of Israel.

Hannukah

http://www.enchantedlearning.com/crafts/hanukkah/  

on this website you can learn how to make a paper dreidel. A dreidel is a wooden or plastic spinning top. When we play the game on Hannukah we bid on gelt (chocolate coins). On a dreidel there are four different hebrew letters ( nun נ, gimmel ג,hayה , shinש ). When you land on a gimmel ג you win the whole pile of gelt. It is a really fun game to play!

The Mitzvah Mall

Our Mitzvah Mall at Kellman is always on the day before Thanksgiving, which is on November 21.  A mitzvah is a good deed that you do for someone else. For example, if someone is in a wheelchair and can’t open the door, you open it for them.  We have Mitzvah Mall to help the homeless and people all over the world.  At the Mitzvah Mall, we listen to people speak about different charities, and decide which ones we want to donate money to.
