Crossing the Red Sea and Sorting Rocks











This week we followed the story of Moses as he lead God's people out of Egypt to find a land of their own. We heard how the people crossed the Red Sea safely after the waters were separted into two parts. 2BP played a board game called "Crossing the Red Sea". If you were travelling well at night because of the light God had given you took an extra turn. But if the Pharaoh's chariots came too close you had to miss a turn.
We also learnt how to sort a large group of things into smaller groups this week. 2BP practiced with coloured straws, rice crackers, popcorn and finally rocks from our class Rock Collection. We discovered that rocks can be sorted by colour, shape, size, weight, surface, hardness and type.

    Hi,2BP

    You are the best class in the school. The game of Crossing the Red Sea is fun because you sometimes get to take the sort cut.
