Students had the opportunity to learn about the Día de los muertos holiday through art, observation, and listening to stories told by lifelong residents of Mexican Town. Thank you parents, for supporting this very important and culturally rich educational opportunity. Thank you also, to the chaperones who made this event possible! When we returned to NIS, we had a wonderful discussion about all that we'd learned. I will be sending a link to view pictures. Thank you again to everyone who made this very special day possible! HOMEWORK: The Día de los muertos packet will be due on Monday. Please finish the crossword puzzle for tomorrow. Have a wonderful evening.
