6G1's Nesting Animals- Morah Shira Greenspan


6G1 spearheaded a project to help add yet another dimension of fun to the seder allegory, "Chad Gadya." At the late hour at which "Chad Gadya" is typically sung, the Aramaic words can sometimes be hard to follow- but not with 6G1's creations! They carefully designed nesting dolls to represent each of the colorful characters of the poem. The inner doll was, of course, the one little goat which was then consumed by the larger doll, the cat, and so on and so forth. The students were careful not to create any physical representation of Hashem. What a fun motivation to stay up until the very end of the seder!
