Diwali

...

Our first week back this half term was all about Diwali. We learnt about why the Hindus and Sikhs celebrate it.  We made our own diva lamps from clay and decorated them.  We designed mendi rangoli patterns.  We investigated lines of symmetry in rangoli patterns and drew our own outside on the ground as well as designing them on paper.  We made sweets and wrote poems. All in all an action packed week!
