The stories in the Christian Bible and Jewish Torah have a powerful influence in many world cultures and societies. Whether children agree with the lessons and messages of these stories or not, being familiar with them can help children engage in important conversations about justice, faith, right, and wrong. Each week, children will read a story from the Bible or Torah and then act that story out using costumes, props and a reader's theater script. Children will discuss the characters and their motivations, and engage in discussions to draw their own conclusions about the meaning to be made from these ancient stories.
