Today in World History the class watched an introductory video on the history and practices of Islam. Students answered questions while watching. The questions were:

- Where was Muhammad born?
- What are the five pillars of Islam?
- What is the Hadith?
- What is the Ka'bah?
- What does an Imam do?
- What are the two sects of Muslims?
- What do Muslims do during Ramadan?

Tomorrow students will work in groups to learn about the terrain and culture of the Arabian peninsula - the place where Muhammad was born and Islam began.
There is no homework for tonight.
