This resource is a must-have for any teacher that wants to engage their students in making connections between the disney film aladdin and the history of Islam and the prophet Muhammad. No, Aladdin is not Muhammad, but there are interesting similarities and differences to note as students follow along with a graphic organizer. Enjoy!
 
Spend a class period having your 7th graders compare and contrast Disney's Aladdin to the story of the Prophet Muhammad. Help students access the curriculum by tapping into what they already know about a Disney film. After slides, video clips and discussion, students write a paragraph demonstrating their understanding of the story of Muhammad.
