Etrogs and Lulavs

At our art easel today, we had pictures of etrogs and lulavs along with pictures of sukkahs available as inspirations for everyone.  Using a reference picture for art is a newer activity for our class and everyone is doing great! We are beginning to see our friends look at the image on the easel as they are painting with our paint sticks. One friend even brought a picture over from elsewhere in the class with him! Everyone continues to improve their grip and practicing crossing the midline to use the whole piece of paper.

In the atelier today, we stamped lemons and painted with feathers to represent the shaking of the etrogs and lulavs!
