Download our 6 Days of Creation packet .  It has beautiful  full color art for each day of creation and Adam and Chava puppets. It also includes coloring pages for each day of creation. Parsha Summary We learned that before G-d created the world, there was nothing. We learned about what was created on each of the 6 days of creation. We discovered different ways to make the numbers on our fingers. Some of the children were able to make different finger combinations using both hands. G-d created the world for us so that we can do good deeds/mitzvot.  We learned about Adam and Chava (Eve) living in Gan Eden (The garden of Eden) and about the Eitz Hada'at - Tree of Knowledge and the tricky snake.  Every week we are going to make a picture of what we learned in this week’s parsha, and at the end of each book of the Torah, we will bring it home. Parsha Drawing Journal Every week, we draw a picture of the parsha (I always did it before shabbos party after reviewing the parsha of the week)
