Textbook Scavenger Hunt: Islam

We are introducing the world religions this week in class.  Today we will be focusing on Islam.  Students need to answer the following questions.

IMPORTANT REMINDER!
When we are discussing religions in class we will only focus on the following things: its history, its beliefs, and how the religion has impacted the world.  We will NOT discuss or share our personal beliefs or opinions of the religions.  

We will be covering: Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Confucianism.

It is important to understand the major religions in order to be a more informed citizen of the world.  It helps you understand why religious groups act they way they do and to understand what motivates them.
