Because pharaoh was so mean to the Israelites they cried out to God for help. God heard them and sent a man named Moses to help them. God would speak to Moses and Moses would speak to pharaoh. Moses would tell pharaoh that God
said to "LET MY PEOPLE GO!" but pharaoh would always say, "NO!".
“Let my
people go!”
MOSES

“NO!”
PHARAOH
Directions for Moses and pharaoh booklets. Have your child trace the words inside the booklets.Have your child color the Moses label if desired. Cut out Moses booklet and glue the Moses labelto the outside of the booklet. Do the same for the pharaoh booklet EXCEPT glue the label for
the pharaoh booklet on the outside of the side with pharaoh. This might seem odd but,when placed in the lapbook the two booklets will open towards each other so it really looks
like Moses is saying”Let my people go!” and pharaohs reply looks like he is saying “NO!” back.

Because pharaoh would not let God's people, the Israelites go, God sent plagues on Egypt so pharaoh would let God's
people go. God sent a total of 10 plagues to Egypt. The plagues did not affect the Israelites. Only the Egyptians. The first plague was the plague of blood. God turned all
the streams, rivers, ponds and pools of water to blood. All the fish in the river died and the river smelled really bad
