Description: This lesson shows how some countries in the Middle East are alike in many ways and is an anticipatory activity to the lesson Odd Man Out, which was presented at Session II of the 2011 World Geography Academy, October 19. Our perceptions are that all of the countries labeled as being in the “Middle East” have nearly all of the same regional characteristics. By beginning with those perceptions, it will be easier to move on to the more complex characteristics in another lesson.
