3.      Predict how many drops of water you think will “fit” on the coin.  Write your prediction below.

4.      Slowly start dropping water onto the coin.  Count each drop as it lands on the coin.  The first time a drop makes the water spill over the edge, stop counting.  Record the number of drops that fit.

Is God really there?

1.      Make a wing by folding the paper strip on the line and taping the ends together so that the top of the wing is longer than the bottom.

2.      Put a pencil through the wing on the folded side.

3.      Hold it with the pencil against the fan.  Move it until the air is blowing over the TOP of the wing.

What happened?

Why did the fan cause this to happen?

How do God’s laws help us know God is with us?

 

Do you think the Israelites felt closer to God after receiving laws from God?

What causes the shapes to form?

 

How did God’s laws form the lives of the Israelites?

 

How do God’s laws make us different from others who do not follow God’s laws?
