Include why he left egypt with the islrealites and how he divided the Red sea in half. The 10 comandments are great to add and Joshua his good servant. You should also add that he was sent to free the islrealites from egypt and take them to the promise land.

MOSES:
WHO: son of an Israelite woman who should have allowed her son to be killed by Pharaoh's soldiers, but hid him in a basket and put him to sail down the river, where the Princess (d'ter of Ph) found and raised him.
WHAT HE DID: He grew up and later became important to Pharaoh. But he killed a man. He left the capital and grew up to be living with his Israelite people. Then he heard the voice of God in a burning bush saying to go back to the Ph and get him to release all the Israelites so they could worship their God in the desert. Ph said "no" several times until God made the plagues. the final plague was to kill all the first born boys of the Egyptians, but NO BOYS for the Israelites was killed. Pharaoh let the people go. Then the crossing of the Red Sea by a miracle
WHY IS MOSES IMPORTANT? He is evidence of God's care of His chosen people. God did not choose the Egyptians as His chosen ones, H e chose the Israelites. god wanted a group of people who would obey Him and be super special. Since He is God, He can do what He likes!
Moses is important as a model leader for today's people.
This all took place in the 4000 BC era about. Sorry can't date it properly.
Do I get an A???

Umm.... I hope you aren't hoping that someone is going to post an essay for you to use.
I suggest reading the relevant bible passages, learn who he was, what he did, why he was important, and when it all happened, and then write it all down.
