Five Things You Know

Worksheet Description

This creative worksheet is centered around the theme of Diwali and is designed to encourage students to express what they know about the festival. The layout includes a central image of a diya, a traditional oil lamp, which is a key symbol of Diwali, representing light and the triumph of good over evil. Around the diya are five blank squares where students can either write about or draw elements associated with Diwali, allowing for flexibility in how they choose to convey their understanding of the festival.

The worksheet prompts young learners to think about the customs, stories, and symbols related to Diwali. Whether it’s drawing rangolis, which are decorative patterns made on the floor, writing about the lighting of diyas, the fireworks, the exchange of sweets and gifts, or the worship of deities like Lakshmi and Ganesha, the activity is structured to help students articulate and visualize their knowledge. This approach not only fosters creative expression but also enhances cognitive connections with the cultural significance of Diwali. By integrating art and writing, the worksheet serves as a versatile educational tool that caters to different learning styles and helps solidify the students’ understanding of this important cultural celebration.
