Mapping Worksheet: Story Plan
Topic/Theme: Cultural festivals
Story Summary: The answer to what a cultural festival is, and a look at cultural festivals around the world and what they celebrate.
What images relate to this story that you want to capture? Pictures of foods and special objects that are important to cultural festivals. Pictures of the festivals in progress (Ex. Holi "Festival of colors", Oktoberfest, Carnaval, Harumatsuri,The Tomato Throwing).
Who are the characters for this story? Identify potential people you could interview and
what those people will add to the story. The people and or dieties the festivals are base upon. (Ex. the Holi is based on several dieties including krshna and Radha,and Oktoberfest was started in order to clebrate the marriage of balvarian crown prince ludwig to princess Therese).
What sounds do you hear when thinking about this story? I hear chanting and all kinds of classic cultural music from india. I can hear children laughing while stuffing their faces full of delicious and diverse foods all over. I hear Germans at the beer hall laughing together and making cheers to this joyous occasion. I hear drums and samba music from brazil. I can hear the excitement in the air as people scream and cheer their hearts out, screaming in the streets about the parade. I hear the bagpipes, the trumpets, the tubas. I hear water sprinkling and spraying in the streets of Nepal.
What questions will be raised by your story? Or, what traditions will be documented? Well, I suppose that the questions risen will probably be " What other festivals are out there"? (since I can't name every one). The traditions will be made well documented in the minds of the people who see my story. They may just begin to respect other cultures more and realize that they're not the only ones on this earth.
Why will this story be interesting to others? This story will give answers to the questions in peoples heads (the ones they're to prideful ask). It will show them fun things that happen in other countries.
