Festivals Project

Grades 9–12

What can we honor and celebrate this season? After learning about many different festivals from around the world, students work in groups to invent and present a festival (with a signature dish) on a topic they believe is worth celebrating or honoring.

This theme-based module on Festivals is intended as a group project that can be completed within a two- to four-week time period along with other coursework. This project includes tasks that are useful for individual, peer, and group assessment.

There are many festivals that fall around the spring and autumn equinox. These times make an ideal start or finish date for this theme-based project.
