In this project, students will explore how they can become true global citizens.  Through this lens, we will study world geography, religion, and culture.  This year, the geographical regions that students will focus on are Asia, Europe, and Oceania.  Throughout the quarter, students will research one country and one of  the five major world religions: Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduis m, Islam or Judaism.  Becoming experts on a single country, they will prepare a self-directed study about an aspect of life in that place.  Products will be created based on the guiding themes of geography: location, place, human environment interaction, movement, and region.
