Missing Assignments

If you still have any missing work from last rotation, you have until Friday to turn it in! If I don’t receive it by Friday, I will mark it as missing and the best grade you can earn after that is a 50% if you turn it in. You either need to finish it at home, library, neighbor’s house, etc. or you need to make arrangements with me to come in before or after school.

Islam and Extremists

Very few groups finished Tuesday’s assignment about Islam. Finish that first today.

Then you are going to learn about Judaism and Islamic Extremists. These Muslims give all other Muslims a bad name because of the things they do. Many people believe that all Muslims are evil or violent because they hear what these groups do, but that isn’t true. First I want you to watch a short video about the Taliban.

You can access the video from Video (V) Drive>Osborne>Middle East>Taliban.

Then I want you to read about the Taliban, Al-Qaeda, and ISIS in this document: Extremists

After you read about the Extremists, you need to answer these questions about them:  Islam Extremists

Whenever you are all the way finished, save it and turn it in.

Judaism

The other major religion that we are studying in this unit is Judaism. Judaism is extremely important in Israel. You need to download this PowerPoint to learn about the basics of Judaism: Judaism

After you read about Judaism, you need to download this document and follow the directions: Judaism Questions

When you finish, save it and turn it in:

Continue working on the European maps. Whenever you get them finished, make sure that you turn it in.

After you finish your maps, you need to compare the 4 religions we’ve learned about this semester. It’s very easy to get them confused with each other. For this assignment, you don’t have to use complete sentences. Use a different color font for each column (up and down). There should be 4 different font colors used.

The assignment is found here: Comparing Religions

These are the PowerPoints you’ve read when learning about each of the religions:

Christianity

Hinduism

Judaism

Islam

When you finish the assignment, save and turn it in.

I will give you about 15-20 minutes to finish up any assignments from this rotation. After the time is up, I will put you with a new partner and you will have a new assignment to start.

If you already have all of your assignments finished, you have 2 video clips that I want you to watch. The first is about climbing Mt. Everest. You can find it at Video (V)>Osborne>Southeast Asia>Climbing Everest

The 2nd video is about a teenager who a few years ago climbed the tallest mountain on each of the 7 continents (called the 7 summits). He’s the youngest person in the world to ever accomplish this challenge. There’s a video story about him before he finished his journey. You can find it at Video (V)>Osborne>Southeast Asia>13 year old to climb Everest

Last year Google announced they created “Street View” on Mount Everest. You can access those here. To get started, double click on one of the red markers. You have an opportunity to see some of the villages and monasteries on Mt. Everest.

After you switch partners you will learn about Hinduism. It is very different from the other religions we have talked about in this class. You need to download and read this document:  Hinduism PowerPoint

You need to download this document and complete the questions. Make sure you write in a complete sentence using a different color of text.   Hinduism Questions

When you finish you need to save it and turn it in.
