Sukkot is known as a holiday for hosting guests, and this includes inviting seven different important figures from Jewish history, also known as the “ushpizin” to our sukkot – one for each night of the holiday. In this activity, students will learn more about the background of this custom as well as about each of the ushpizin figures. Then, students will play a game to help identify each of the ushpizin, using the fact sheets as guidance.
