During a recent Jewish Life class with our Group Home and Day Program students, we shared a beautiful lesson on the importance of treating one another with respect and compassion.

To bring this concept to life, we created a symbolic “kindness potion” that was sprinkled on each other, representing our commitment to increasing kindness in everything we do.

The heart of the session was an interactive activity where we gathered in a circle to share words of appreciation. As we passed a roll of yarn to each peer and staff member, we created a physical web connecting the entire group—a moving demonstration of our theme: “Kindness holds us together.”

To end the day, students painted sweet quotes to display in their rooms as ongoing reminders of practicing kindness.

In celebration of Shavuot, our community came together in multiple ways to explore the significance of receiving the Torah at Mount Sinai. We loved learning about the tradition of Mount Sinai blooming with lush greenery and vibrant flowers to welcome the Torah.

During our Shavuot Jewish Life Class, our artists got creative and crafted stunning tape-resistant flower artwork, depicting the floral landscape of the mountain. 🎨🏔️

We also discussed the tradition of enjoying dairy during the holiday—a beautiful reminder of how fulfilling and nourishing Torah study is, just like milk. 🥛 To celebrate, everyone whipped up their own individual, no-bake cheesecakes! 🍰

Meanwhile, our City and Valley Day Program gathered Valley Beth Shalom Synagogue to create their own beautiful mini bouquets out of stunning fabric flowers. Along with the bouquets, everyone wrote a special note about something they learned from the Torah and attached it to their arrangement. Afterwards, we enjoyed live music and songs performed by Cantor Mike Stein. It was a day filled with meaning, learning, and inspiration! ✨🌸

Wishing everyone a joyful Shavuot!

During a recent Jewish Life class, our Group Home students learned about the bracha of Shehakol (the blessing over foods that do not grow on trees or from the ground), exploring everything from savory foods to sweet treats. Through interactive games and a handy food pamphlet, they strengthened their understanding of which foods—like fish, meat, and even ice cream—receive this special blessing.

The day was made even sweeter as everyone made chocolate-covered marshmallow pops, reciting the Shehakol blessing together with incredible enthusiasm. It was the perfect blend of learning and fun.
