Old Testament Tabernacle Craft

God told Moses and the Israelites to build a tabernacle. It was a special place for them to grow closer to God, like a temple. Unlike our temples today, the tabernacle was built like a tent. That way they could move the tabernacle with them as they traveled to the promised land.

1. Cut out the shape along the dashed line.

2. Fold along the dotted lines. Put glue on the white tabs.

3. Glue the tabernacle down on a new piece of paper.

4. Fold up the edges of the larger paper. Tape the corners together to make the walls of the outer tabernacle.
