Celebrating Diwali

Celebrating Diwali

⇒This lesson is best done outside and involves some messy play and natural resources. 

⇒Single Lesson Plan

We will experience:

  • What Diwali is and how it is celebrated
  • The Story of Rama and Sita

The activities involved are: 

  • Role-playing
  • Art Tasks
  • Games 

A lovely lesson plan exploring celebrations through practical drama activities and fun games. What is Diwali? Is a good starting point to show visually to the children the story of Rama and Sita. 

It is important that children learn about other faiths so that we can acknowledge their choices in life alongside our own.  Equally for those that do follow a faith it is lovely for the rest of the class to learn about something that means a lot to them and their families. 

There are plenty of opportunities for creative thinking and team collaboration in this lesson plan. Our KS1 Religious Education resources use active methods, so do not worry that your class won’t be engaged. They will! With our Muddy ways, they always are. Look out for options as to whether you can do it in big indoor spaces or whether it’s better taught outdoors. Remember, you need a silver account to gain access to resources and train with us; go for Gold
