Indian Cultural Day

We learned about the Indian culture and one of the most important event to the Indians ie Deepavali or Diwali.  We learned the traditional costumes, the food and how Deepavali is celebrated.  To make this learning an exciting and a memorable experience, we encouraged the children to don Indian costumes, packed Indian food for break time, learned some Indian dance movements as we listen to Indian songs, learned some common expressions and looked at videos on how and why Indians celebrate Deepavali.  the children also made greeting cards to our Indian friend - Rushini.
