For your art work today, you are going to draw/paint flowers in the style of an American artist called Georgia O’Keeffe. Her paintings were often large and showed flowers very close up and she is known as a botanical illustrator. You can learn more about her on this website. Draw the outline of the flower in pencil first, then complete the picture using either coloured pencil or paint. You might chose one of the pictures on the blog, or one from home.

Today we are continuing our work on Moses. He was told to go to the Pharaoh and ask for the Israelites to be set free, but the Pharaoh would not let this happen. If the Pharaoh continued to say no, God said he would send 10 plagues to Egypt. Look at this video; what do you think a plague is? For your task, draw on a piece of paper the 10 plagues that were sent to Egypt. Then, ask an adult to cut out your 10 pictures. Can you put them in order of how they were sent? Maybe you could ask an adult to put them in order!
