"Only A Tree Knows How to be A Tree"

 With Tu B'Shvat coming up next week, we began discussing the importance of it. We talked about how Tu B'Shvat is the birthday of the trees and how the trees are important for our breath as well! We talked about different types of food that also come from trees. After our discussion about trees, we read the story "Only A Tree Knows How to be A Tree". We talked about what happened in the story and why we think this story is important as well. We then took time and drew pictures about things that happened in the story.
