介绍
孩子们参观伟大的户外活动，想象诺亚方舟的大小。
主题
指导, 挪亚, 顺服, 耐心, 毅力
材料
四名志愿者
铅笔和纸
时间
大约20分钟
课前准备
只有在天气合适，教会和家长同意的情况下，才能进行这项活动。请四位志愿者站在全班同学要测量的假想方舟的四个角上。场地需要至少450英尺长，75英尺宽，才能与方舟的实际尺寸相符。上课之前，先在场地走走，以了解用步子量出方舟尺寸的最佳方式，这会很有帮助。课前，让孩子们在圣经里找到创世纪6:15。让孩子们在纸上记下神给挪亚的方舟的尺寸。如果你的圣经使用立方体作为衡量标准，解释一立方等于1.5英尺。让孩子们外出时带着这张纸。
活动：做
和全班同学一起，走到方舟的一个角。让一名志愿者站在这个角上，然后全班走75英尺到下一个角。另一个志愿者站在那里，其余的同学走450英尺到下一个角，再留下一个志愿者。形成一个长方形，四个志愿者各站在一个角上。现在各角都做了标记，来点乐趣吧。到中间去看看：看看从一端跑到另一端需要多长时间，看看站在一个角落的同学是否能听到对面角落的人说话，等等。然后把全班同学召集起来，讨论问题。
问题：
1. 方舟的实际尺寸看起来比你想象的要大还是要小？
2. 需要几个人花多长时间来建造这样一艘大船？
3. 挪亚能把所有的动物都装进方舟吗？
4. 如果神要你建造像方舟那么大的东西，你会是什么反应？
5. 用什么词来描述挪亚建造方舟的过程？ (耐心、忠信、坚持不懈)

SIZE UP THE ARK
Children visit the great outdoors to visualize the size of Noah’s ark.
TOPICS:
Guidance, Noah, Obedience, Patience, Perseverance
MATERIALS:
Four volunteers Pencils and paper
DURATION:
Approximately 20 minutes
PREPARATION
Do this activity only if the weather is suitable and the church and a parent give permission. Ask for four volunteers who will stand at the four corners of an imaginary ark measured by the class. Your church ground will need to be at least 450 feet long and 75 feet wide to pace off the actual measurements of the ark. It would be helpful to take a walk of the church grounds on your own before class to know the best way to step-off the full size of the ark. Before taking the class outside, have the children find Genesis 6:15 in their Bibles. Have the kids jot down on a piece of paper the measurements God gave to Noah for the size of the ark. If your Bible uses cubits as a measurement, explain that one cubit equals 1½ feet. Have the children take this sheet of paper with them when they go outside.
WHAT YOU WILL DO:
With the entire class, walk over to an appropriate starting point for one of the corners of the ark. Have one of the volunteers stand on this corner, while the class then walks 75 feet to the next corner. Another volunteer stands there and the remainder of the class walks 450 feet to the next corner and leaves another volunteer. Form a rectangle with one of the four volunteers at each corner. Now that the corners are marked, have some fun. Visit the middle: see how long it would take to run from one end to the other, see if the class standing at one corner can hear the person at the opposite corner, etc. Then bring the class back together and go over the discussion questions.
Discussion Questions: 1. After seeing the actual size of the ark, did it seem bigger or smaller than you thought? 2. How long do you think it would take a few people to build such a large boat? 3. Do you think Noah was able to fit all the animals in the ark? 4. If God asked you to build something as big as the ark, what would your reaction be? 5. What words could describe Noah as he built the ark? (Patient, faithful, persistent)
