Virtual Voyager #4 - Religion

So far in our study of ancient civilizations we have encountered Judaism, Zoroastrianism, Hinduism, and Buddhism.  We have also experienced Confucianism and Daoism as well as the varied beliefs of Mesopotamia and Egypt.  Regardless of who you are, where you live, or when you live, there are family or cultural ideas that direct the thoughts, actions, and deeds of a society. 

Your task is to research the religion or ideals practiced by the people in your assigned country.


1.  Start by finding your country on Yahoo Kids (http://kids.yahoo.com/reference/world-factbook).  Hint:  They are in alphabetical order!  

2.  Then, click the PEOPLE tab and scroll down to RELIGIONS.  Please note your country might have more than one.  Please report on the religion with the largest following.  If you are not familiar with the religion, make sure you visit URI Kids (http://www.uri.org/kids/world_hind.htm) and read about your country's religion.

3.  Lastly, return to the blog and report your findings in one of our Write to Learn strategies such as Think Back, 3-Minute Pause, 3-2-1, Dice, or RAFT.

They paid there respects to them during the yearly festival. So they went to the shrines. A shrine is a place where they pray to the gods and make some sort of a offerings. They entered through a place called a torii. What they would usually offer is rice ,beans and tea. There is about 80,000 shrines over Japan. They both practiced Shinto and Buddhism.

    3- Christianity was made about 2000 years ago, starting at the birth of the messiah, Jesus. Jesus was believed to be the son of God and the virgin Mary.
    2- Signs to show the belief in God and Christianity include: a cross symbolizing the death and rebirth of Jesus, and a dove carrying an olive branch showing Gods love for peace and love.
    1- Jesus was crucified and placed in a tomb, but three days later when visitors came to see him, he was gone. This is how God showed that the good believers of him would be resurrected in a way, which would be their body stays on Earth, but their spirit would live with him and his followers in heaven.

    Good morning and welcome to the museum all about Guinea Bassau! Thank you for coming! Today we are going to talk about religion....... Did you know... Guinea Bassau's most common religion is Indigenous? They have 3 different religion groups. 1.Indigenous 50% 2.Muslim 45% 3.Christian 5% In the Indigenous religion their life is mainly about spirits and spiritual practices. Spiritual practices are based on nature, spirits that live in animals, and spirits that live in landscape and trees. These spirits govern weather. To Indigenous people their spiritual practice and believing in spirits is more than just a religion. Most of the Indigenous form still exists in the rainforests of South America, the reservations in North America, far north of Alaska and Canada, New Zealand, Africa and Australia. If you want to learn more about Guinea Bassau visit our other museum in Cedar Falls, Iowa our next session is learning how they live and we act out their roles in life.

    2. Bangladesh produces 6,813 barrels per day and is ranked 92nd in world oil production. Bangladesh can't keep up with oil production in larger countries.
    3. Bangladesh is ranked 21st in Roadways with 239,226km. I think there is limited amount of space in Bangladesh and there might not be much use for a lot of roads, but there must be some use for them.
    4. Bangladesh is ranked 85th in people living with hIV/ AIDs with 13,000 people. I think it is because there is a lot of causes of aids but many people are dieing of it.
