Day Seventy Three of LOCKDOWN!

Zachary is very pleased with his new giant poster - a massive history of the world!

It also has a Biblical history; Zachary loves looking at the great detail

Chatting to our friend Harrison who popped over to say thank you for his birthday presents

We continued making our Noah's Ark pictures

A Noah's Ark maths challenge: converting the cubits measurements into feet and finding the max. and min. dimensions of the Ark

The people before the flood

The flood covers the people and the Ark is afloat with its windows open above

We also set up the flood in the bath

Building towers ready to be destroyed by the flood

Then it started to rain and everything was covered in water

We learnt that Noah actually didn't just take two of every animal on the Ark; in fact, he took seven of every clean animal. We then had a guessing game as to which animals were clean and unclean. 

They were surprised to learn that grasshoppers are clean but horses are unclean

Once they'd learnt them, they had another go at sorting the pictures

We talked about how Abraham was promised many descendants, then we made our own family trees

Tahlia's finished family tree

Ptolemy loved putting his together
