These worksheets introduce students to the background and traditions of the Hindu ‘Festival Of Lights’, Diwali. The story of Rama and Sita explains why Diwali is celebrated and why Divas – small clay lamps – are an important part of this celebration. The students discover cultural and religious festivals where light plays an important role and discuss why these similarities have arisen.
To conclude the lesson the students can produce a collage or design a card depicting the beauty and wonderful colours of Diwali.
