Diwali
Diwali (short for Deepawali) is India's biggest and most important holiday of the year. The word translates to "row of lights" from Sanskrit and celebrates the victory of good over evil and light over darkness. It is a celebration that lasts for a couple of days and includes fireworks, food, gifts, colored sand, and special clay lamps.
THE STORY BEHIND DIWALI:
As a multicultural celebration, Diwali brings us the opportunity to learn more from other languages and cultures around the world. One of the best ways to do it is by engaging children in meaningful hands-on experiences. Therefore, here I share with you some Montessori bilingual cards and games that you could use in the classroom:
