Differing Fundamental Beliefs

For common issues/ concerns I researched differing fundamental beliefs. Fundamental beliefs can include culture, religion, etc. 
they are present in our classroom and there isnt just one way to go about them because each situation will be different. 
I couldn't find too much on the subject, but the biggest thing I found was to stay neutral. If you have to teach a touchy subject, stay close to the textbook and avoid any bias you may have at all times. 

Research your community and see what the religious affliations there are around the school and in the school as well and familiarize yourself with each one. Research, research, research.

Never single out your students for being of a different belief if you know about it, unless the student is completely comfortable.

Build an assignment for everyone about their families and background. It could help you become comfortable and the students as well. 

The biggest thing in my opinion is to stay neutral and objective as possible.
