Year 2 have been very busy today learning all about the Hindu festival of Diwali. We started off the day by learning all about the festival of light and the story of Rama and Sita. We retold the story, some children used puppets and uploaded their videos onto Seesaw. We identified the significance of the light and how it represented good over evil. Next, we completed a comprehension about the festival and how different parts of India celebrate it differently. After that, we created our own Diwali lamps. We linked this to our instructional writing in English and finished off our day by writing our own set of instructions.
