today is rosh chodesh adar. so we started megila instead of chumash. for sarah, i had pulled out pesukim that tell the bare bones of the story. sarah had illustrated it. so i got that out and chana read and translated and enjoyed looking at sarah's pictures. she asked why achashverosh made a party (i left out the part about showing off his wealth, so i explained that). she liked that the women had a party, too. she agreed with vashti's decision not to show up. couldn't believe achashverosh would kill her.

we are up to the part where haman is about to be promoted.

for chazara, she will do shlishi up to where we are in the car on the way to the horseshoe class.
