Which Came First?





When this question is asked, most people think of the chicken or the egg. Here is a game that wants to know which Bible story came first. In this game players are asked which story appeared first in the Bible as they make their way around the board. The first player to FINISH wins. (You can also use this game to review what happened in the correct order of a certain Bible story or several of your own choosing. Just write up questions about key events in the story and play the game.)

Timelines

Putting events on a timeline gives you a sense of how much time goes by in between each event. It also helps you remember just when those important things happened. It is an easy way for students to understand events in the Bible in the correct order and they can also be a lot of fun to make.

Once you have decided that your students would gain tremendous benefit from seeing the progression of events of the Bible in the form of a timeline, the first obstacle that crops up is, “How do we start?” Some of the questions that arise when constructing a timeline are from not knowing what the date increments should be, how far apart they should be spaced, what format should be used and what exactly should go on it.

thatresourcesiteblogspot.com- This resource includes the timeline lines, the pieces for the timeline and a references sheet. A unique feature of this timeline is that we have included the scripture references for each of the events highlighted. Younger students may simply just put the timeline up and add the pieces in order. Older learners may want to look up the passages for discussion. Some events require a bit of reading - say a chapter or so, while other passages are quite short.
