The children will learn to identify and explore the rich cultural heritage of Islam and the histories associated with this religion. The text helps us to make connections with religion and culture – and how this impacted on a historical society, and what positive impacts Islam has on wider cultures today. We also explore stereotypes, and how these can change our behaviours towards certain groups of people.
