Why is Diwali celebrated? Why are diyas lit? What do you say to greet someone a Happy Diwali ? Your students will enjoy knowing the answers to these and many more interesting questions with this 32 Scavenger Hunt Fun Facts pack on the Indian festival Diwali.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
✓ 32 Fact Cards on Diwali
✓ 4 response sheets
✓ Answer Key
✓ Banner reading 'Happy Diwali'
ACTIVITY
♦ Place the 32 fact cards on Diwali around the classroom. Students can work individually, in pairs, or in small groups to find the answers to all 32 questions on their response sheets. They must read the fact card to find the answer for each corresponding fact question on their response sheets.

EVIDENCE OF LEARNING
After the entire class has finished the Scavenger Hunt, you can display these cards on the interactive whiteboard and discuss answers. This way students can reflect on their responses while referring to the questions again.
** NOTE: you can select any number of cards (1- 18) or (19-32) depending upon time available. Print out recording sheets accordingly.
Scaffold the writing of the parts of a narrative that include the elements of a plot (exposition, inciting incident, conflict, rising action, climax, falling action and resolution) with this comprehensive pack comprising of 40 editable Power Point presentation slides, student guided interactive notes, sample texts, self-editing and peer-editing checklists and marking rubric.
Overview of Items Included:
1.40 editable and animated Power Point slides.
2.17 guided note-taking sheets.
3.Cover sheet to collate all note pages into a booklet.
4.Teacher reference notes to use along with the presentation.
5.Sample narrative text for each element of the plot: exposition, inciting incident, conflict, rising action, climax, falling action and resolution
6.Plot diagram to be filled in by student for each element of the plot as it is covered.
7.10 Review/assessment questions on the plot.
8.Picture narrative writing prompt: third-person fictional or personal.
9.Narrative writing prompt: student’s choice
10.Plot diagram for organising story events.

13. Teacher marking rubric.
14. Snapshot of all 40 (colour) slides on a sheet for both student (glue in notebooks) and teacher reference. Prints fine in black and white.
LESSON ACTIVITY:
Collate all guided note sheets (except the story maps) into a booklet. Staple together with cover sheet. Use the story map sheet in conjunction with the guided notes. Students will document content from the presentation. They will highlight key evidence in the sample text and fill up each part of the story map for each element of the plot as it is presented. Keep a separate copy of the story map on hand for each student. This way students don’t have to keep going back and forth through their notes to refer to the story map. Elicit response prior to presenting each slide to gauge students’ prior knowledge or to make them think constructively. Refer to the Teacher Guide as you present.
The slides are editable so you will be able to edit content or change spellings. Some text that is locked in with the clip art is not editable; this is in keeping with the artist’s terms of use.
EVIDENCE OF LEARNING:
Have students practice writing a personal or third-person fictional narrative on the provided picture-writing prompt or on a topic of choice. They use the story map to plan and organise the story events.
Students self-edit and peer edit using the self-editing and peer-editing checklist. Use the Teacher Marking Rubric to provide an assessment score. This resource has greatly helped my students to structure their narratives and I hope it will help your students too.
