A special celebration (Diwali)

Diwali is a special celebration where Indians and maybe other cultures celebrate together. During Diwali, people wear their finest clothes, illuminate their homes with diyas (candle light/plastic lights) and rangoli, perform worship ceremonies of Lakshmi (god), the goddess of wealth, light fireworks, and partake in family feast where mithai (sweets) and gifts are shared. Diwali is 5 days long.

Finest clothes

In Diwali people wear the finest clothes like brand new sarees,dresses,kurtas and lots more Indian  clothes from stores and websites. While special clothes aren’t needed for Diwali, participants in the festival put on new clothing as part of the celebration. Dressing in your best clothing from traditional to formal, is part of the celebration.

Homes with lights

On Diwali we put the lights around the house because Diwali is the festival of Joy. During this festival, people decorate their homes with lights and oil lamps, called diyas.  For many people, Diwali honours the Hindu goddess of wealth, Lakshmi. The lights and lamps are said to help Lakshmi find her way into people’s homes, bringing wealth in the year to come.

Rangoli

The rangoli represents the happiness, positivity and liveliness of a household, and is intended to welcome Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and good luck. It is believed that a Hindu household without a clean entrance and rangoli is daridra (bad luck). The purpose of rangoli is beyond decoration.

Worship ceremonies of Lakshmi (god)/Pray  

Beyond these stories, Diwali is also a celebration of the Hindu goddess of wealth and good fortune, Lakshmi. In India’s society, Diwali coincided with the time to pray for Lakshmi for good fortune.

Family and feast

When a family sits down together, it helps them handle the stresses of daily life and the hassles of day-to-day existence. Eating together tends to promote more sensible eating habits, which in turn helps family members manage their weight more easily.

Mithai (sweets) 

Sweets, called mithai, are a big part of the festival you’re even meant to offer them to the gods at the temple. After they’re offered to the gods, they can be enjoyed by other prayers, followed by friends, family and the people who made them.

Gifts are shared.

The idea behind the custom of exchanging gifts for Diwali is to change up the feeling of togetherness, love and affection. People confer their heartfelt feelings, blessings, wishes and appreciation for their near and dear ones.

5 days long

The five-day holiday is centred around the New Moon and occurs in the Hindu month of Kartik. On the Gregorian calendar falls in October or November. While the third day of Diwali is the height of the celebration, many families observe all five days. The first day of Diwali is called Dhanteras(It is the first day that marks the festival of Diwali in most of India. Dhanteras is a Hindu god of medicine.)

 

Diwali is a special celebration where we celebrate, it means a Hindu festival with lights, held from October to November. It is particularly associated with Lakshmi, the goddess of prosperity, and marks the beginning of the financial year in india.

Writing Dialogues

Hello blogger welcome back to my blog. Today this blog post is about Dialogue. Dialogue is using speech marks as the person talks. In our dialogue, instead of saying said we used another word like thought, say, shout and lots more like that. We all brainstormed it on our padlet so we can also use the words other people in our class used.

Have a look at my 3 dialogues.

Why we shouldn’t use the internet that much

Hello, welcome to my blog. This week in reading Seuss had a reading task to finish and that task was- Why we shouldn’t or use the internet that much.We had to make a Persuade about it and the Persuade is only the introduction.

Here is my Persuade introduction

I strongly believe that we should not use the internet that much. We should not use it that much because there are scams going on, random people who are chatting to you and can take your information about where you live and other stuff about you. They  can steal your bank account from your information that you give to them, and there are more things the internet can do. I think we should use the internet wisely and properly so we don’t get hacked or robbed.
