Unit 2, Lesson 13: Buddhism Origins
Learning Target: I can explain the origins and main beliefs of Buddhism
Class Activities:
1. Students came in and picked up one handout: "Buddhism: Origins". They got right to work on the do now, which asked them to define success. We then transitioned to Buddhism by explaining that in Buddhism, people believe that wanting things only leads to suffering, so instead, they strive to not desire anything. Achieving that, to them, is the true success.
2. We spent 15 minutes reading the story of how Buddha became Buddha, and the student drew cartoons of it on the front of their handouts. I stamped them as they were completed.
3. We took some notes on the back of the handout that explain the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. Students then answered the two questions on the bottom of the page. I stamped that, too, when they were finished. Two stamps= a complete paper.
Papers handed in today:
None, but I did check and stamp their worksheets.
Homework:
None (almost everybody finished in class)
