$8.50

This Ramadan Library Lesson helps elementary students understand Islam, Ramadan, and Eid al-Fitr a bit better. Students will learn about Ramadan activities, foods, and fasting. They will also learn etiquette with regard to eating (or not eating) with Muslim friends who are fasting.

***PLEASE NOTE: This Ramadan Library Lesson was written by a non-Muslim librarian, but I have done all I can to ensure the authenticity of the information. It is thoroughly-researched and includes source information in notes section of each slide. I also sent it to a sensitivity reader (who is Muslim) to check for accuracy, sensitivity, and thoroughness.
