To help you remember what we’ve learned about the 5 major world religions, you will be making a
flip-book. Each page of the flip-book will need to include all the following information for each of
the major world religions:

Name of the religion on the tab
Draw and Color Symbol(s) / important people/ gods of the religion
Tell where the religion originated (place/region/country)

Tell the name of the Religious book(s) / Religious writings for the religion
Tell the basic beliefs or ideas of the religion (a bare minimum of 3 for each)
Make sure to write out the information in complete sentences and paragraphs.
To make your flip-book, you will need 3 sheets of long white paper. Lay the papers flat on a desk
and spread them out so that each one is off-set by ½ to ¾ of an inch.
Then, fold the top half down to complete the flip-book leaving a ½ inch space again.
Finally, put 2 staples at the very top of the book to hold the book together.

the title. Color and decorate this page any way you like.
