Since your textbook does not cover Buddhism’s Holy Days and Festivals, research them and select one that most intrigues you. You will notice the dates of these celebration days change from year to year because Buddhists follow the lunar calendar and not the solar calendar.
Write a 2-3 page narrative on your chosen Holy Day or Festival. You will have to do a little research first to understand the event and explain what occurs. Then, pretend you and a friend attended this festival celebration or Holy Day service. Tell me what you saw, heard, touched, even smelled and tasted! This narrative should be written in first person “I, me, my, we” so I can experience the celebration through your eyes. Use paragraphs. You may also include dialogue/conversation as if you talked with others at the event. THIS WILL BE FUN!
Include a catchy title and one small picture as a visual.
Please include an MLA formatted Works Cited page for sources consulted.
Here is an EXAMPLE FESTIVAL NARRATIVE PAPER to inspire you. Since this example paper is on the Songkran Festival, you must choose a different holy day/festival. (Note: The Works Cited page on the student example is incomplete. Please fully cite your sources MLA style. This requires more than a website address.)
