Getting ready
Age & adult help
Children need to follow the pictured events and make the folds used to retell them.
Prepare awkward cuts, demonstrate the folds and read captions aloud. Use the pictures for shared retelling.
What you’ll need
Printer, paper, colouring pencils or crayons, scissors. Glue or tape may be useful if separate sections need joining.
Time & preparation
One sequencing craft, including colouring and folding. Discussion time is additional.
Age is an editorial estimate for the motor and reading demands of this format. Difficulty, completion time and suggested tools are planning estimates, not build-tested.
Check the file before you print for a group, and allow for any extra help the kids might need.
Printing tipsThe story behind the craft
Bible passage: Joshua 6
Joshua follows God’s instructions as Israel marches around Jericho. On the seventh day the people shout and the walls fall; Rahab and her household are brought out as promised.
Main takeaway: Joshua’s account connects following instructions with keeping the promise to Rahab.
As you put the story in order
Read the story sections before attaching them, then use the finished sequence to explain what changes.
Put the marching, trumpets and falling walls in sequence. Include Rahab’s rescue, and do not turn the battle into a game about attacking other people.
Younger learners can choose what happens first and next. Older learners can explain why a turning point changes the story.
Questions to explore
- What instructions were the people given?
- What happened to Rahab’s household?
- Why is keeping a promise important even in a difficult situation?
Common questions
What files are included in this download?
The download is a 3-page PDF: JoshuaandtheBattleofJericho-Story.pdf. This is the English edition. You print the files yourself; physical supplies are not included.
Is this a rotating wheel or a folding craft?
The supplied instructions show a folding strip attached to a circular cover. Colour and cut the pieces, fold the strip on the marked lines, then glue its top and bottom ends to the cover as indicated. Open it to reveal the story or writing sections; this version does not need a spinner fastener. For a Bible reading to accompany this activity, use Joshua 6.
Which pages should I print, and at what size?
The original PDF pages are A4 portrait. JoshuaandtheBattleofJericho-Story.pdf: print pages 2, 3 for each learner or group. Page 1 is the assembly guide, which can be shared. Print single-sided. On US Letter paper, select Letter and Fit or shrink to the printable area; the originals are not separate Letter-sized files.
What supplies and preparation does this need?
Paper, colouring pencils, scissors and glue. Help make the strip folds and attach the ends without gluing the opening sections shut.
What help might children need with this activity?
Suggested ages: 6–10 years. Help with the cover cuts, concertina folds and gluing the marked ends. Read the story or writing prompts aloud where needed. Adjust this guide for the child’s reading and making skills.
