For class discussion:<br />
1. Why couldn’t God finish creating the world alone?<br />
2. What are some things that are easier or more fun to do with a partner?<br />
3. What are some ways that we are partners with God? How do you help God take<br />
care of the world?<br />
4. Do you think the world ever will be finished? What would a finished world look<br />
like?<br />
For class life:<br />
1. Engage the children in activities – <strong>for</strong> example, painting a picture, cleaning the<br />
room, or dancing – and present separate opportunities to do the activities alone<br />
and with partners. Discuss with the children how the activities felt when they did<br />
them alone as compared to when they did them with a partner.<br />
2. Instead of a mitzvah tree or mitzvah notes, consider an opportunity <strong>for</strong> children to<br />
report on how they are partners with God.<br />
3. Make a chart of things the children do to take care of the school, their pets, their<br />
home, their families, and so on.<br />
4. Act out the story “The Turnip” and discuss with the children how everyone has<br />
the potential to help change the world.<br />
