About Ramadan
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, and because that calendar runs shorter than the solar year, it shifts about eleven days earlier each year, moving through every season over time. Muslims who fast abstain from food and drink from dawn until sunset, rising early for suhoor and breaking the fast at iftar, often with dates and water. The month emphasizes prayer, reading the Quran, and giving to those in need, and it closes with the festival of Eid al-Fitr.
A useful sheet for elementary and middle school teachers building a unit on world religions or lunar calendars, and for families marking the month at home.
