Early World Civilizations: Supplemental Guide 3 | The Religion of Babylon 57
During Essential Background Information or Terms, you may wish to
omit the term polytheistic as this term may be too advanced for this
grade. What is important is that students become aware that the
people in Mesopotamia believed in many, many gods. (Later in the
domain, students will learn about religions that have only one God.)
During Word Work, you may wish to adjust the language as necessary
so that students who are comfortable sharing about their religion are
free to do so; however, students should not be forced to share.
