Boaz (Ruth 4) | Story

Boaz 
If you want the teachers page then please click on the image for the pdf.

Today’s hero is Boaz because he shows us the gift of A Shoe

Essential Teachers notes:
This story is an amalgamation of chapter 3 and 4 of the book of Ruth. The significance of uncovering feet and shameful presence of a woman on the threshing floor is skimmed over and instead the process of halitzah – literally ‘taking off’ of the shoe – alongside the scheming of Naomi and Boaz take centre stage. Halitzah is actually quite a shameful process and Boaz is kind to his kinsman by not bringing Naomi and Ruth to be part of the proceedings. This story may make the kids look at their shoes differently.

Main Passage : Ruth 4
Additional passages : Ruth 2, Deuteronomy 25: 5-10

Ruth (Ruth 2) | Worksheet

 
Ruth worksheet
This worksheet for Ruth is all about poverty, gleaning and the blessings we sometimes can only see when we strip away the privilege many of us have. It challenges the kids to think about God as someone who blesses rather than someone who just provides. With colouring, counting, circling and discussion 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 either some story notes or even better the real text!

The PDF can can be downloaded by clicking on the image.
 

Ruth (Ruth 2) | Craft 2

 

Ruth’s story is tied up with the barley harvest and sheaves of wheat and barley are great shapes. This craft is a lovely quiet threading activity, simple enough for younger participants but effective enough to satisfy older children.

Want to add in a prayer activity? – Use this so that each head of grain represents a prayer!
