Deconstructing Misconceptions about Islam (Free Resources)

​This would be great for 7th Grade Medieval World History when you examine South East Asia and the Middle East. 

When I start the unit on Islamic Civilizations I always try to deconstruct student's misconceptions and stereotypes about Islam. I have students fill out an anticipation guide (see below) and then give them placards that will inform of truth. This activity also teaches them how to cite information and evidence and write accurate claims. Use the free resources below to help your students gain a truthful and accurate insight about Islam.
