Getting ready

Age & adult help

The circles, viewing window and rotating mechanism require cutting and alignment.

An adult should prepare any centre hole and fit the fastener if the template uses one. Help cut the viewing window.

What you’ll need

Printer, paper or light card, colouring pencils or crayons, scissors. A split pin (paper fastener) and adult-made centre hole are suggested; confirm the template’s mechanism.

Time & preparation

One wheel, including colouring and assembly. Teaching 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 tips

The story behind the craft

Bible passage: Job 1–2; 38–42

Job experiences devastating losses and argues honestly about his suffering. His friends offer explanations that do not resolve his pain; God eventually addresses Job, and the story ends with restoration.

Main takeaway: Job’s suffering invites compassion and honest questions, not easy blame.

As you turn the wheel

Turn slowly and use each revealed section as a pause in the retelling.

Leave space for grief and questions. Do not treat the ending as a promise that good people will always regain everything they lose.

Younger learners can predict the next pictured event. Older learners can explain a character’s decision at the point where it appears.

Questions to explore

  • What kinds of feelings might Job have had?
  • Why can quick explanations hurt someone who is grieving?
  • What could a caring friend say or do instead?

Common questions

What files are included in this download?

The download is a 2-page PDF: StoryOfJob.pdf. This is the English edition. You print the files yourself; physical supplies are not included.

How do I make the wheel turn?

Colour and cut the two wheel pieces. Place the story disc beneath the cover, line up their centres and attach them with a paper split pin. Turn the top piece to reveal each story section. The pictured scenes include: Job’s Faith: Job loved God and lived a good life; Great Loss: He lost his family, health, and possessions; Stays Faithful: Job refused to turn away from God; Blessed Again: God restored Job’s health and blessings.

Which pages should I print, and at what size?

The original PDF pages are A4 portrait. StoryOfJob.pdf: print the pages you want to use for each learner or group. 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 or printer-compatible light card, colouring pencils, scissors and a paper split pin. An adult should make the centre holes and prepare the viewing opening.

What help might children need with this activity?

Suggested ages: 6–10 years. An adult should prepare any centre hole and fit the fastener if the template uses one. Help cut the viewing window. Adjust this guide for the child’s reading and making skills.
