I teach 6th grade reading and we're embarking upon an objective unit of winter holidays around the world. We are study 5 other holidays in addition to Christmas. We're looking at the documented history of the holidays, and will then be comparing and contrasting different countries and cultures with our own.
Several students say they are "not allowed" to be in the classroom during this time. I am, therefore, sending them to another classroom (for three weeks!!) while we work on our unit. Rather than give them pointless worksheets, I'd like to learn more about their beliefs. Do JWs take offense at this? What other types of activities are "ok" to ask of JW students?
