We spent time this week making colorful, whimsical masks in honor of the Día de los Muertos holiday. Third graders identified key points about the significance of the holiday and then singled out the important characteristics of calaveras (see previous posts). Students applied their learning to create their own original skull masks that capture the spirit of the Mexican holiday.
