Who was Siddhartha Gautama and how did he become the Buddha?  What are the beliefs of Buddhism?  How do you identify a Buddha in art?  This Learning Lab Collection was developed to support DC Public School's learning goals for Unit Guide 7.3 Ancient India.  Students will be able to answer these questions after they examine the informational text and describe a work of art with a Project Zero Thinking Routine and a close-looking group activity.
