About this Genesis 8 activity sheet

This free printable worksheet reviews Genesis 8 through four short activities: a word search over the chapter’s key words, a crossword whose clues come from the passage, four true/false statements to talk through, and a memory-verse fill-in from Genesis 8:11. The final page is a complete answer key for the adult in the room.

The sheet is written for roughly ages 6–12. Read the chapter aloud first, or work through the Genesis 8 kids study guide together, then hand out the sheet as a review. You can also read Genesis 8 before you start.

Print as many copies as your Sunday school class, midweek club, homeschool co-op, or family devotional needs. Choose Actual size in your printer settings so the puzzles keep their proportions.

“The dove returned to him. In its beak was a freshly picked olive leaf!”
