Good Morning Primary 2!  Last week we looked at Jewish Family homes. Can you remember any of the special things we saw in the house? Today are going to learn a little about Shabbat .( Shabbat means a day of rest, so any work needs to be done in advance of the day. This includes food preparation and cleaning, and it also means that homework is not allowed.)  This is a special Jewish celebration that happens every week .Have you  heard of that?

Step 1:- We are going to watch a small video about a family preparing for Shabbat.

Did you spot some of the things the family were doing.  They were cleaning and cooking.  They made special Challah bread, set the table with a fancy white table cover and they polished the silver candlesticks for the Shabbat candles.

Have a little look at the powerpoint or pdf document which will help you recognise some of the things from the video.

Did you notice the prayers and the kiddush cup from last week? Did you also spot the Challah bread?

Step 3:-  Let’s see if you can match the words to the pictures of the items from a Jewish home at Shabbat.
