Buddhism, Hinduism and Sikhism Now we are to learn about three more world religions-Buddhism, Hinduism and Sikhism. We will also do this as a stations activity, but this time, you won’t need any computers. At each station, students will read, discuss and then fill in their spoke diagrams. Remember that the students will need a spoke diagram for each of the three religions. Using What We Know Use these activities to allow students to apply what they’ve learned about the new religions we’ve just studied. Have the students do the proverbs activity, the primary source activity and then after watching the Sikh Presentation, the activity that goes with it. There is a simple rubric you can use to grade the Sikhism activity. NOTE: It would be a good idea to print out the Sikh presentation for the kids to use as they complete the assignment. Visual Recognition Use this activity to review the kids over all six of the world religions. Give each student six note cards or one piece of typing paper that they tear into six pieces. Ask them to label each card with one of the following: Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, and Sikhism. As you show them each slide in the power point below, have them hold up one of their cards to show which religion they think the photo goes with. Make sure you require the kids to point out the visual clues that made them choose the answer they did. There is an answer key for you below.
