Designed for any class in which students learn about other cultures, the "Guide to the World's Religions" project allows students to thoroughly and objectively explore religion, a very important aspect of culture.
Purchase includes directions and rubric for the project itself, a modified version of the project for students on an IEP/504, plus three documents intended as support materials for the project. Use any or all of the documents as your students complete this project. Please see preview file for more details.
Some of the instructions in the project are rather specific to my preferences as a teacher (e.g. the instructions say to use letter-sized paper only), but as the files are in .doc format, feel free to modify them! Also, the directions name several religions as possible subjects to study, but the project would still work if your students only study one or two religions.
Thank you for your interest in this project, and please let me know what you think about it!

This is my eighth year of teaching, and I currently teach 7th grade humanities in Washington state. Curriculum design is one of my favorite parts of the job. Six years ago I redesigned our seventh grade humanities curriculum to change it from a chronological approach to a thematic approach, and I've been obsessively refining it ever since. I also started teaching some online high school courses last year, which has been a great experience for me!
