DAYS OF THE DEAD
Fourth grade students learned about a festive, Mexican
holiday called Days of the Dead. This celebration takes place Oct 28-Nov
1. It is an occasion to
welcome the spirits of family and friends who have passed. There are many wonderful
examples of folk art that is born from this celebration. Our students explored
one of these art forms, Calaveras de dulce (sugar skulls Our sugar skulls are
actually made from sugar and icing…but are not to be eaten!
Great job fourth grade.
