Lesson Outline

1. Introduction (5 minutes)

• Briefly introduce Rosh Hashanah as the Jewish New Year.
• Discuss the importance of symbols like apples and honey in celebrating Rosh Hashanah.

2. Math Integration (15 minutes)

• Activity 1: Counting and Basic Operations

  • Distribute worksheets with problems involving counting apples or measuring the amount of honey needed for a recipe.
  • Example problems:
    • If each guest is served 2 apple slices and there are 10 guests, how many apple slices are needed in total?
    • A recipe requires 3 cups of honey. If you want to double the recipe, how much honey will you need?

• Activity 2: Word Problems

  • Create word problems based on Rosh Hashanah themes.
  • Example: "If a family has a tradition of making a round challah and they make 4 for Rosh Hashanah, how many loaves will they have if they give away 2?"

3. Discussion (5 minutes)

• Review the answers to the worksheets together.
• Discuss how math is present in everyday life, even in cultural celebrations.

4. Conclusion (5 minutes)

• Summarize the day's lesson.
• Encourage students to think of other ways math appears in celebrations or cultural practices.

Optional Extension Activity

• Have students create a decoration for Rosh Hashanah using math (like creating symmetrical designs) or calculate the total number of items needed for a Rosh Hashanah meal.

Assessment

• Evaluate student worksheets for understanding and participation in discussion.
