Día de los Muertos

Sixth graders enjoyed learning about the traditional Mexican holiday, Día de los Muertos. They researched the meaning behind this holiday as well as investigated more about the traditions and uses of the calaveras and calacas. They also explored the drawings of José Guadalupe Posada, especially his most famous drawing of La Catrina. After students presented their projects, we celebrated Día de los Muertos by eating pan de muertos andmole.
