We learned about many different Holiday Celebrations in December. Mrs. Fitzgerald's aunt came to discuss Hanukkah with us. We learned about the menorah, the temple, and the oil the Jews used that lasted for 8 days. We also got to play the game Dreidel. When the Roman guards came by the house during Hanukkah, the Jewish family would have their dreidels ready to play so they could trick the guards into thinking they were playing a game instead of worshipping God.
The Hebrew letters on the sides of the Dreidel.

Mr. Taylor and Mrs. Holly (Mrs. Fitzgerald's brother and mom) came to help us too.

Mr. Fitzgerald even came to play with us!
