Sun Stands Still Review Game

SUN STANDS STILL
Joshua 7-10

This game reviews the 3 events leading up to the battle of the sun standing still as well as this great story. You will need 4 yellow circles (the center of the sun) and yellow triangles (the rays of the sun). On each circle write one of the following events: First Ai Battle, Second Ai Battle, Gilgal treaty, Amonite battle. On the triangles write descriptions of these events. The children will match the descriptions to the events and make 4 suns in the process. Laminate or cover with clear contact paper to provide stability. The triangle descriptions include:
