Ramadan

1-30 August

Ramadan is a month-long Islamic festival, during which Muslims fast in the daylight hours. TES Resources has lots material to help teachers organise relevant lessons, as well as assembly ideas for the first day after Ramadan, known as Id-ul-Fitr (“the feast of fast-breaking”).
