Celebrate & Learn About Diwali Starting On October 31, 2024 With This Choice Board & Resources!

 

This week starts Diwali. It is celebrated this year on October 31, 2024 this year and continues for 5 days. 

As shared in the PebbleGo Next Holidays article, 

Diwali is a festival celebrated during the Hindu month of Kartika, which falls in October or November. Diwali is also called the Festival of Lights. It is India's biggest, most important holiday. Diwali lasts five days and started as a harvest festival. Today, it is celebrated by almost all Indians, regardless of faith. It is seen as a celebration of good triumphing over evil.

You will find the Diwali Choice Board here to make a copy, Publish to the Web and share with your students. 

Please note that in this choice board, I have pictures of the PebbleGo Diwali article...
