Happy Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead)

We have been learning about the Mexican tradition called Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead. It is a time of celebration and to honor the friends and family members who we have lost. 

First, we watched a BrainPop video to learn about Mexico and this special Mexican holiday. 

Next, we created beautiful calaveras to decorate our room. A big thank you to Will's mom for preparing the art project and teaching us about this special holiday. 

Behold! A few arrays of calaveras!

 What did you learn about this special Mexican tradition?

How many calaveras did we make? Use multiplication!

Did you honor anyone special with your artwork?
