This is lesson seven in a 13-week series that I used in my class. I wanted one quarter to introduce the Old Testament with a basic timeline of the people and events. The students can learn what happened in the Old Testament and how those events lead to Jesus. These lessons are a combination of the Life Overview Series and other lessons. I will show you what I used to blend several posts into 13 lessons. You can change any to fit your needs. This lesson teaches about Joshua. The lesson continues to explain the Big Picture. I discussed the land division for the 12 Tribes as part of the Old Testament overview. The main application though is Joshua’s statement “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” So we did a puzzle and worksheet to see how to apply that to our house/life. Keep in mind these lessons are slightly longer with very different application reviews. The (left) worksheet is a discussion starter to talk about serving the Lord. I printed the puzzle on cardstock and put the pieces in sandwich bags. It reinforces the thought about serving Jesus. These are black & white only. There are a lot of posters with the visuals for this lesson. Click here to download everything that is shown above. I also used this Bible Timeline File Folder Game. I made the pictures into stickers (which they love!) and the students added to it each week. Even though we studied Jesus and Acts after this quarter, rather than removing any pictures, I printed those pictures already on the page along with a couple that we wouldn't have as it's own lesson. Click here if you want to print the one I used with some of the pictures already in place. This includes the completed teacher's visual also. The original file has a teacher's visual completed. and a student file folder without any pictures on the timeline. All pictures will need to be cut and glued or made into stickers to use.
