Tolerance and religion can be a tricky topic to teach our students but it is crucial. It is sometimes difficult for students to embrace differences and to be tolerant. We live in a world full of prejudice, intolerance and ignorance and it is our role as teachers to teach our students how to respect each other regardless of their social-economic backgrounds or religions.
I have created this resource for every teacher that may be confronted to religious misunderstanding in his/her class and also for those who simply want to underline the key principle of the 5 major religions: Respect
It could also be used in assembly to raise awareness about religions.
Here’s what you will get with this resource: a 15-page booklet for students to keep tracks of their leaning and a 33-slide PPT to create more interactivity. Each step of the lesson is explained at the bottom of the slides and activities are corrected to save you time.
1. a brainstorming in pairs with questions
2. a truth/myths activity
3. a grid to complete in pairs/groups about different religions
4. a map about religions/figures in the world
