This worksheet for Boaz is a good final review. It both explores the ideas presented in today’s story but also refers back to the stories in the previous 2 sessions. With dot to dot, or statements, discussion and text checking there is a mix of activities suitable for independent readers to work thorough in small groups.
To complete the worksheet you will need colouring pens or pencils, something to write with and a bible that includes the old testament.

The story of Boaz and Ruth contains a few details that are both common and yet very significant. The idea of claiming, the importance of shoes, and the companionship of marriage are all themes found in the following game suggestions.
Walking shoes – This game works best with younger children and those with smaller feet. You’ll need a pile of adult shoes and a basic start and end line. Split the shoes into 2 piles (one from each pair) and have the kids take turns ‘walking’ the shoes from the start to the end line. Each child can take up to 4 shoes per turn (hands and feet) but each must walk across the floor, no carrying.
Match cards – Head over to this post and print out some flip and match card especially for this lesson. The set contains 7 sets of shoes alongside one Boaz card and one Ruth card… because they obviously made a pair!
These cards are always fun and so versatile! This little flip card ‘match up’ game is perfect for quiet play, basic craft or an extension activity. It features period relevant shoes not modern shapes which could lead to discussions about comfort and protection. Includes 1 card of Boaz holding a shoe, 1 card of Ruth, and 7 sets of shoes. (Ruth and Boaz are a match for each other!) |
This story has a lot of parts and this craft is a great way to review each. I love working with acetate to create layers. Be sure to buy the correct acetate for your printer. The back of this craft also has questions and prompts to discuss once you’ve finished! |
Here are the images you need for the hero’s attributes linked to Boaz (Ruth 4).
Each hero set contains a high quality graphic of the character, a take home bible card and a colouring page.
