Year 4 visual midrashim of Mount Sinai

In the lead up to Shavuot, Year 4 read the Torah’s description of the Mount Sinai experience. Students also learnt of various midrashim associated with Mount Sinai, including the teaching that every Israelite in every generation was present to receive the Torah and its teachings. Using these accounts as inspiration, students then created their own visual midrash and artistic representation of מתן תורה  – the Giving of the Torah.
