Classroom Ideas
Children could watch the clip as an introduction to what goes on in a Sikh place of worship on a special day in the year. They might discuss their response to the presenter and to the sounds and sights on the clip. Key words should be noted; they might draw and label the design on the Sikh flag, rehearse the sound of God's name and find out more about what Sikhs are celebrating on this special day.
