Elijah's Life

Elijah was a faithful prophet of God. He spoke to kings and proved the power of God to the people. There are so many interesting things to study about Elijah!

The following posters, worksheets and more are in the lesson and application pack.

 This is a Match-It Game. It can be made into a file folder game if you prefer. The people would be glued to the inside right side of the file folder and glue the Elijah poster on the front cover. The Event Cards can be saved in a plastic baggie or envelope. Students can work on this by themselves, as teams, or this can be used as a class review. The teacher can hold up the cards and discuss who it belongs to and why and the students can place it on the correct person. The people can be cut out also if you prefer and the title and instructions on the people paper can be glued to the front of the storage  envelope. The event cards are divided by each person and you might want to make an extra set or write a list for reference. Or, the corresponding name can be written on the back so they can be self checking.

This is an Elijah's Life Sequencing Timeline. There is a completed one (right) for a teacher's visual, if you are keeping a notebook and just want it as a chart, or you do not like the cut and glue. If the students only put glue above the dotted line, they will have a lift-the-flap with the information under each photo.
