Religions of the World

In accordance with the state-mandated curriculum, students are learning about the major world religions associated with South and Southeast Asia: Buddhism and Hinduism. Last week, they learned about the basic beliefs, history,  and spread of Buddhism. This week, students will be doing an inquiry-based project on Hinduism.  They also just completed Trade Research projects that required them to investigate where our clothing, shoes, and electronics come from. Expect a test on economics, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, including these two religions, soon.  This is an excellent opportunity to discuss values, respect, and interdependence with your child.
