DIWALI http://www.bbc.co.uk/education/clips/zxjxn39 Give me oil in my lamp One more step

What is Diwali? Diwali is a Hindu festival which lasts for 5 days. It is also celebrated by Sikhs. Diwali means “row of lighted lamps” and is often called the Festival of Lights. The festival celebrates good over evil; light over darkness. The Goddess of Wealth (Lakshmi) is honoured during Diwali which is also considered to be the Hindu New Year. Because there are many regions in India, Diwali is celebrated in many different ways (and also all over the World.) Diwali is also used to celebrate a successful harvest.

Diwali means decorating homes with lights, candles and lamps (divas) to celebrate good over evil.

Fireworks displays

Exchanging sweets and gifts

What happens during Diwali? Wearing new clothes Spring cleaning houses Having feasts What does celebrating ‘new beginnings’ mean?

New Beginnings Tidy homes – showing respect for your environment. New clothes – making sure they look smart. Giving to charity – helping others less fortunate. Feasts with family – celebrating and appreciating those who care for you.

New Beginnings = Growth Mindset Growth mindset means working hard to overcome problems. Use mistakes to create new beginnings. Celebrate and appreciate those around you. Be kind and generous. Remember good won over evil.

The story of Rama and Sita This is probably the most famous Diwali legend and many of the traditions practiced nowadays relate to the story. The demon Ravana had 10 arms and 10 heads and was a wicked King. He kidnapped Sita, the wife of Rama. Rama killed the demon and rescued his wife and returned to become King. The people lit rows of lamps to guide them home. We are now going to watch the story of Rama and Sita
