We are told from the beginning or we keep hearing from others that religions are so extremely different from one another. However, when we look into the depths and true meanings of religions, are they really that different from each other? And how do you know?
 * __ESSENTIAL QUESTION __**

The students will explore the history and learn the various characteristics of the 5 major world religions: Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam. The students will acquire the knowledge through interactive websites online and will organize their research with graphic organizers on Inspiration software. After the students finish the graphic organizers, the students will then construct the corresponding wiki for their religion. The final piece of the project is for the students to create a presentation on their religion in which they answer the essential question.
