Aaron's Life

Since most of the events in the wilderness that are written in the Old Testament are about Moses, they are not mentioned here. This lesson is about Aaron and his life. The golden calf is discussed and the priesthood, and God proclaiming Aaron to be the leader with his rod blossoming. 

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

There is a genealogy chart for Aaron with a cut & glue worksheet.

This is an Aaron'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.

I decided to update the Tabernacle posters and add new worksheets to correspond with everything.

This is Aaron's High Priest outfit. The first is a completed teacher's visual. The worksheets are the same in color and black and white.

I added these to teach the High Priest's Breastplate. I originally designed these for 2020 VBS and decided to add them as posters here. The worksheets are plain to allow you to use and design them as you want to for your class.

Please note: I have researched the 12 stone colors extensively. There may be differences because of the Biblical wording and the color of the stones from the area. Their dirt and lands; not ours. It is an interesting study but there are differences in the actual stones. A single stone might have several different colors in the stone itself. There are so many variables. Also, since the original text is read from right to left, that is how I placed the stones; not the English reading of left to right. These are included in the download below.

The Tabernacle has two posters and the same color and black & white student fill-in-the-blank worksheets. I added separate posters for each of the items God specified that they make for the Tabernacle.
