CU3-24

**Goal**: Students will review the origins of the Jews entry into the Promised Land and how mythology reviewed creates a thread to hold the people together regardless of the scientific evidence that shows their origin to be different. ** 1. **** Gain attention of the learner**: What were the bad habits that the writers of the Bibles felt the Egyptians practiced? If people wondered for forty years how many of these practices were remembered and how new traditions were trained with the new commandments? ** 2. **** Review relevant past learning**: Moses and his generations were dying out by now. What events did they participate in that angered God? ** 3. **** Present new material**: Power must pass hands from the new to the old. Why wouldn’t the writers of the Bible want the old group to stay in power? Deuteronomy 31-34 ** 4. **** Provide guided practice**: The Bible was written by at least four different authors. If this version we just read was written by Moses how could he have written about his death and the change of power from Moses to Joshua? Think of the change in power from one president to another what different things happen during this transition. ** 5. **** Provide independent practice**: If your students were to become the rulers of these new tribe entering Israel. Have them devise a list of rules and practices they will follow to model what they learned in the desert.
