AND finally...
...here are some of the pictures we managed to take during the activities
we took part in on India Day. From what I have heard from the students - they really enjoyed
learning about the culture of India - trying food, attempting rangoli (art), making chapatis, experimenting with henna and learning some Bollywood style dancing were among the activities.
Trying some of the clothing that was brought in.
Working on their rangoli and learning about henna, clothing and the importance of the bracelets.
Making chapatis (flat bread), trying henna and the finished rangoli art.
A big thank you to all who participated by donating their time and/or expertise. I would especially like to thank my dear friend, Preet, who not only spent the day with us, but who supplied henna, Samosas, and bracelets for everyone. It was a fabulous day of learning and having a guest in the classroom willing to share her culture and experiences with the students was invaluable.
It was a chaotic but awesome day. I would like to think it was a great success - and
I am already looking forward to the next cultural day!!!
