This lesson explores the Noble Eightfold Path, the foundational teachings of Buddhism that guide adherents toward ethical living, mental discipline, and wisdom. Students will be able to describe each aspect of the path and understand their significance in the lives of Buddhists. By participating in interactive activities, such as locating path principles and creating freeze-frame representations, learners will evaluate how these teachings impact their own lives and reflect on the choices Buddhists make, encouraging a deeper understanding of compassion and morality.
