Let My People Go!

Today Julia used blocks to illustrate her telling of the Pesach story. Today's retelling focused on the part of the story when Moses asked King Pharoah to let the Jewish people leave Egypt. We then learned how to put on a play!
Nathan decided to create Pharoah's kingdom before the play.


Which lead to a rousing, participatory sing-along of "Let My People Go." with some children taking on the role of Moses and others taking on the role of Pharoah.
Jared, as Moses, is asking "Oh Listen, Oh listen, oh listen King Pharoah" acting out another of our favorite Passover songs "Oh Listen."
"No, No, No. I will not let them go." (though Micah appears to be considering it!)
We had some very passionate performances!
