Diwali - 30th October 2023

Today, Year F got to be Exceptional Explorers as we discovered what was inside the ‘Curiosity Suitcase.’

 

We took things out of the suitcase 1 at a time and used fantastic communication and language skills to discuss what we saw, and what we thought it could be. At the end, we found 2 books all about Diwali. We then watched a short video clip all about the Hindu festival of light, which gave us the last piece of the puzzle to discover what we were learning about this week.

 

We have really enjoyed exploring the things which were found in the suitcase during our busy learning. We played with lots of different light sources, created Rangoli patterns using colourful rice, drew around our hands and careful drew Mehndi patterns and started making our own Diva lamps which we will paint and embellish once they are dry.
