Sun Room tells the story of Passover



The Passover Story by Emmett L.

Once upon a time in the desert of Egypt, there was a king and the Jewish people. The Pharaoh wanted to build very big pyramids, but there was one Jewish person that didn’t like that. His name was Moses. He did not like how Pharaoh was working the people so hard. And he was angry because every day Pharaoh was working the Jewish people so hard. So one day Moses went to Pharaoh and he knocked on the door, bang, bang, bang. And the Pharaoh opened the door and he said, “What are you doing at my palace? What’s wrong?”. And then Moses said, “Why do you keep working the Jewish people so hard? If you keep lying 10 times, then 10 big giant plagues will come.” Then that day he was lying and a big thing happened. The light of the sun went out.

The people leaved Egypt. But they didn’t have time to rise their bread so they packed it in their backpacks and they were so tired when they got home. And they opened their backpacks and do you know what they found? Matzoh!


The Passover Story by Veikko

There was a mean king. And his name was Pharaoh. He wanted Jewish people to build big pyramids. The Jewish people were tired from building the pyramids. The Pharaoh said, “You need to build even more pyramids!”. He told his guards to come. The next morning he heard a strange sound and when he woke up, there were frogs. The next morning he heard a strange sound and there were bugs flying all over the place. The next morning there were so much animals from the jungle. Moses told the Pharaoh that if he didn’t let them free, big big 10 plagues would happen. Then the Jewish people left Egypt.


The End The Passover Story by Ethan

Once upon a time Pharaoh worked all the Jewish people. They were sad because they didn’t want to work so hard. And then Moses went to Pharaoh’s castle. He said, “If you don’t stop working the Jewish people so hard, something bad’s gonna happen. Dark and animals and rain!”. Pharaoh kept making the Jewish people work. They leaved Egypt. Then when they went home, they opened their sacks and... matzoh!


The Passover Story by Isabel

Once upon a time in the kingdom of Egypt there was a mean king named Pharaoh. He made the Jewish people work very hard. He didn’t let them go to sleep. He wanted the Jewish people to build pyramids and carry heavy, heavy bricks and heavy wood. He didn’t let them leave Egypt. He made them work every day and every night. Moses had to knock on Pharaoh’s door and he said, “If you don’t stop working the Jewish people so hard, something bad will happen that you won’t like.”

Something green came and frogs were jumping everywhere. Jump! Jump! Jump! Pharaoh ran to Moses and said, “Take them away!”. Then Pharaoh kept working the Jewish people very hard. The next day, darkness came and Pharaoh couldn’t see, or his helpers. Only the Jewish people could see. Then Pharaoh said, “Take the darkness away!”. He kept working the Jewish people harder and harder, he yelled. Then another plague came: hail. The next morning, hail came. Pharaoh said, “Take that hail away!”, then he kept working the Jewish people harder and harder. Then another plague came: flies. They were buzzing everywhere, bzzzz, bzzzz.
The Jewish people wanted to leave and Pharaoh said, “You can leave quickly before I change my mind.” So they packed their dough quickly and they ran out to a new land. They went to a new house. And they lived happily ever after.


The Passover Story by Danny

Once upon a time there was a mean king and his name was Pharaoh. He didn’t let the Jewish people leave the desert. He made them build the pyramids. And when they were gonna leave, Pharaoh and his helpers wanted them to stay. Moses wanted the mean king and his helpers to stop working the Jewish people so hard. Pharaoh made them keep working. And then a bad, bad thing happened. Frogs were jumping everywhere.

When Pharaoh was gonna put his stick up, the water opened up and they crossed, but the mean king wanted them to stay. And the water closed. And the Jewish people got away.
