World Religions DBQ
- PDF
Description
Bring primary and secondary sources to your students' fingertips as they annotate and analyze ten primary sources from the World History's most influential religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. This full DBQ guides students through the analysis process and provides numerous supports for struggling readers and English Language Learners.
Each religion features two primary source excerpts, formatted with plenty of space for students to annotate, and a full page of analysis questions to guide students toward answering the essential question using evidence from the documents. Additionally, a 2-page alphabetized glossary written in student-friendly terms provides additional support.
For best results with this DBQ, especially if your students are unfamiliar with the processes of annotation and analysis, I recommend the following DBQ Skills Worksheets, also available through Ms. Maestra Creative Curriculum:
