Hanukkah Reading Worksheets
Captivate Your Students with the Inspirational Story of Hanukkah
Ignite your students’ curiosity and develop their cultural literacy with this engaging resource centered around the powerful story of Hanukkah. This ancient Jewish narrative recounts the Maccabees’ courageous rebellion and unwavering faith during the Greeks’ religious persecution in the 2nd century BCE.
As the villainous Greek-Syrian ruler Antiochus IV outlawed Judaism and ordered worship of Greek gods, the Jewish priest Mattathias and his five sons took a stand. After Mattathias’s death, his son Judah led their small rebel army to numerous improbable victories over Antiochus’s vastly larger forces. They ultimately reclaimed the desecrated Temple in Jerusalem.
When it came time to relight the Temple’s menorah, only one day’s supply of consecrated olive oil remained - yet it miraculously burned for eight nights until new sanctified oil could be prepared. This astounding miracle highlighting the triumph of faith over persecution is joyously celebrated each year during the eight nights of Hanukkah.
Through this powerful narrative of Jewish resilience, your students will gain invaluable insights into the ancestral foundations that shaped Jewish spirituality, ethics, and beloved traditions like the festival of lights.

Partner worksheets allow children to work and learn with a peer, taking it in turns to write the focus grapheme, they then read the word to their friend who listens and ticks the check circle next to the word when it is read correctly, the friend then re-reads the word to get their check circle ticked. Using different coloured pencils makes it easy to see that children have been taking turns. An extension is to take it in turns drawing sound buttons under each example word. Highly effective and enjoyed by children.
I have also uploaded a corresponding version of each worksheet without check circles if you wish to use them as individual work.
Each word illustrated with extra clear black & white clipart, therefore easy to photocopy and for children to colour.
