In Global class the 9th graders have been discussing Muslim civilization. This has been a particularly interesting topic as we have heard so much about the Muslim faith in the past couple of years. First we talked about some of the core beliefs in Islam and compared those to that of Judaism and Christianity. One of my goals has been to dispel any stereotypes of this religion but give them an unbiased view of another world religion. It has given way to interesting discussions within class. As well, we have gone over Middle East geography in class, much to the dislike of the students. However, we have talked about why it is so important to discuss geography and understand the world in which we live.
