*** EDIT*** If there is a holiday you celebrate at home, that you would like to help us celebrate at school, please feel free to help us find ways to celebrate! We respect all cultural and religious backgrounds and would love to learn more about a celebration that is coming up and important in your family.
Today was our Diwali celebration! Yesterday we learned a song about Diwali and painted diyas. Today we saw a short video about Diwali, talked about how people celebrate (I hear a few people watch fireworks in Brampton!), and sang our song. As Mrs. Saini was away today, celebrating Diwali with her family, we will also be creating our very own rangoli designs tomorrow with coloured salt.

If you are interested in seeing the
video we watched (it was great!) it is here. You can skip the puzzle and go right to the "start" button.
In other news, it looks like we have some realism painters among us. Miss. Biasuitti brought us a poinsettia and look at the beautiful drawings that emerged!
