Materials Needed:

• Color printer
• Heavy paper (letter-sized)
• Stick Glue/ Super glue
• Scissors
• Penknife
• Metal Ruler
Directions:

This model of Noah’s Ark is made according to scale 135:1.
According to Genesis 6, God told Noah:
“14 Make yourself an ark of gopher wood. Make rooms in the ark, and cover it
inside and out with pitch. 15 This is how you are to make it: the length of the
ark 300 cubits, its breadth 50 cubits, and its height 30 cubits. 16 Make a roof
for the ark, and finish it to a cubit above, and set the door of the ark in its
side. Make it with lower, second, and third decks.”

1) Print out the cut-outs on letter-sized paper (11”x8.5”). Heavier
paper will hold and support weight better. Select only one of
the following options to print.
• Pages 1 through 13 are the instructions you are reading
now.
• Pages 14 through 42 are the project pages in color.
• Pages 43 through 71 are the printable project pages in
black and white which are suitable for students to color
or if you don’t wish to use up all your ink cartridges!
• Pages 72 through 100 are the black and white pages
without the pattern of the boards.

2) Take note of the following symbols as they provide you with
the necessary directions on each sheet.

3) Let’s start with Section 1
Using the symbols as a guide, cut along the bold lines and fold
along the dashed lines. To ensure that your lines remain crisp
when you fold them, gently score your penknife along the
dashed line before you make the fold.

You should get something like this for Section 1 Front View:
And this for Section 1 Back View

Section 1 Interior.
This part is a little tricky. Using a penknife, cut along the bold
lines that divide the 3 levels.
Cut out Section 1 (level 2) and Section 1 (level 3)

Slide in Section 1 (level 2) and Section 1 (level 3) and glue
down their flaps behind.
Do NOT apply glue on the small square sections yet.

Glue this interior into Section 1. You should get the following
after having completed Section 1.
4) Section 2
Using the symbols as a guide, you should get something like this
for Section 2 Front View.

Repeat the steps for Section 2 Back View. Glue on the interior of
Section 2. You should get something like this:
5) Section 3
Repeat the steps for Section 3 Front View. You should get this:

Repeat the steps for Section 3 back view. Cut out a wall for
Section 3. Glue the respective sides and slide it into the middle of
Section 3 as shown.
Next, cut out Section 3 (left partition), apply glue and slide it into
the left-hand section. Align with the grey dotted line as shown.

6) Section 4
Repeat all steps and cut out another wall to use as a support. You
should get this:
7) Section 4-6
Repeat all the steps till you reach the final section.

8) Connect all sections together
Align the slits and slot them in. This step takes some patience as
it can be a little challenging.
