=Burning questions about religion=

2) Students will be required to show their planning process using pencil and paper. This will allow the students to have their information before going straight to the platform they are using. 3) Students will need to come up with three questions they want answered about the religion they are studying. 4) Teacher will guide and support the groups through conferencing in order to help formulate their questioning. 5) After designing the project, the students will present their information to the class. || Please identify opportunities for differentiation.
 * **Title**: ||< Religion Project ||
 * **Subject**: ||< Social Studies ||
 * **Grade**: ||< 6th ||
 * **Time Frame**: ||< How long will the activity/lesson/project take? 5-10 class days ||
 * **Summary:** ||< Students are beginning to study the three oldest religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam). The students will be moving away from the teacher lecture style and present information on a religion of their choice. The students will have certain criteria they will be expected to cover. Within their project design, the students will be asked to come up with some burning questions about the religion they are choosing. The students will be asked to research their question. Ultimately, I would like the students to share how this plays into their own belief. Using the idea from the power point shared today, I would like the students to have the choice in their method of delivering their information. ||
