FAQ
How do I use the Diwali Detective: Write the Room?
⌄
Hide the cards around the room. Children walk around with a clipboard, find each card and write the word on their sheet.
What is the Diwali Detective: Write the Room?
⌄
Three pages: ten picture word cards (diya, rangoli, lantern, sweets, fireworks, gift, mehndi, lights, garland and card) and two recording sheets where children write each word next to its picture.
Can I use the Diwali Detective: Write the Room at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for Preschool to 1st Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many Preschool to 1st Grade Diwali resources are there?
⌄
1 printable resource, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are Diwali resources for?
⌄
These are written for Preschool to 1st Grade students, roughly ages 4-7. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these Diwali resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Preschool to 1st Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
