Questions to ask your child about their school week:
1) What is Tashlich? (A ceremony where we throw away our sins, in the form of birdseed, into the river.)

3) How many eggs does the queen bee lay in one day? (2000!!)
4) What does smoke do to the bees? (calms them down so the beekeeper can work with the them)
5) How are you like a bee? How are you different than a bee? (Bees have 5 eyes, antennae)
6) What did you do with the Wiki Sticks during Fundations? (we practiced making lowercase letters)
7) Why does a Sukkah have no door? (Everyone is welcome at any time)
8) What is the Elf, Giant, Robot greeting?
