Festivals of Light
Diwali
We started our study of Festivals of Light with Diwali, which is taking place right now in India! As we explore different celebrations around the world, we will focus on music, dance, foods, cultural symbols like flags, animals, plants, and art. While exploring Diwali, we focused on Rangoli, a traditional art that is often symmetrical in design. We used geometric shapes, starting with circles. The children used different mediums, including sidewalk chalk to decorate our school entrances. We delighted in the colors, shapes, textures, music, and of course the light. Happy Diwali!
