Let's talk about Religious Literacy as a part of Social Studies and Global Education.

You may have caught the news that Oklahoma's chief education officer just announced that all Oklahoma schools are required to incorporate the Bible and the Ten Commandments in their curricula, effective immediately.

We are a 501(c)3 non-profit and thus we cannot and will not discuss the political aspects of this statement. (Please likewise keep that out of our comments.)

However we will say that we are big fans of global education and literacy in world religions.

If you are a teacher who is looking for resources to balance out your curriculum, we have some great tools to help you teach about world religions with film, which we will set out in the thread below. All of our resources are free, always.
