Hanukkah

As part of the grade 2 curriculum, we learn about the traditions and celebrations of the people of Canada and the world. The photos here show menorahs that the students made. We learned about the story of Hanukkah and the Hanukkah miracle - which was the oil lamp that stayed lit for 8 days despite there being only enough oil for one day. The students also learned about Judah Macabee who fought for the right to celebrate as he wished despite the ruling of the king.
