Why Do We Give on Purim?

image description

Students unscramble the Purim narrative in order to understand why we give mishloach manot (gifts of food) and matanot l’evyonim (gifts for the poor). Then, students get their creative juices flowing as they prepare their own gift packages.

This activity is best suited for 4th – 6th grades
