Apr. 17, 2008 - Unit Study Continues...
I am really starting to look forward to doing some lesson plans that SOMEONE else has prepared! I think I must be putting too much on our collective plate! I shouldn't complain though, the lesson is really sinking in with the children, and though exhausting, it has been fun. Today's run down:
- Review yesterday's Bible reading
- Recite memory verses
- Sing our resurrection songs
- Plague of Locusts...pictures of locusts everywhere!!!
- Label the body parts of locusts, discuss what they eat and why they are pests
- Look at Egyptian pyramids and ancient ruins (various library books)
- Write an report on what you discover about Ancient Egyptian Pyramids
- Discuss how bricks were made by slaves
- Try to make a brick
- Get grocery items for Seder
In addition to our lessons today, we had to pick up some plants for the garden plus a few flowers for the front deck. We also ran to the post office and recycle center and now the children are helping my parents with some tree work in their yard. So, it has been a very full day. Thankfully, we already have our evening meal prepared, all I have to do is pop it in the oven.
