India Day at Inventure Academy

On the 20th of March, India Day, each class was assigned a state (or states) of India. For example, 3A did Himachal Pradesh and 3B did Rajasthan. In the weeks before India Day, the entire class studied various aspects of the state they were assigned. For India Day, my class prepared a skit, a dance, facts about Himachal Pradesh, about the culture, religion, handicrafts, language and food. We also made a mind map for all we had done about Himachal Pradesh. Each child’s parent was invited to the class to see the presentation. Some classes, like 5A which was doing Gujarat, had some stuff to sell and they also allowed everyone to do Tie – Die. It cost money, though ! In 1B, which was doing Punjab, you could take a picture with a tractor ( not a real tractor though! ) . There was also pottery where you could make a pot and take it home or buy a previously made pot. This was truly a day I will remember for a long time.
