The Middle School religious ed class starts each class with a fun game tied to our lesson.

September 27th we learned about the 4th commandment. One student was blindfolded, another student was giving directions for them to get thru the obstacle course and 2 other kids were giving wrong directions to get them “lost”

October 4th we learned about the 5th commandment. Each student had a balloon tied to their ankle and they had to keep it safe will also trying to pop everyone else’s balloon.
