Day of the Dead, or, Día De Los Muertos en Español, is a major holiday in Latin American culture.
This year for Día De Los Muertos, Spanish club organized a big event during lunchtime on November 1st, 2017. To celebrate, we organized a craft table with sugar skull coloring pages and pipe cleaners along with colored tissue paper to make paper flowers. We also purchased a few gallons of horchata, a Mexican drink made of ground almonds, and some pan de muerto, a bread eaten especially on Día De Los Muertos. Students were also able to get their face painted as a sugar skull, a Día De Los Muertos tradition, while we all watched The Book of Life.
Lots of students participated and we had lots of fun, muy divertido!
