My final #summerfunbucketlist entry to close out the first half : #mycollection. I have a couple more skulls around the apartment and a painting in storage, but this is my modest Dia de los Muertos shadow box collection. I picked these up on visits to San Antinio & Tempe, so not authentic since I haven't been to Mexico but something I only get in that region. I love these things & find the holiday beautiful. @StayCurious @4thhouseontheleft

Maybe it‘s the family historian in me, but I‘ve always wished my culture celebrated this holiday. Great explanation of the holiday. I love the illustrations! Bonus: this book made me look up chocolate atole (hot chocolate) recipes & I‘m going to make that when the weather changes. This would have been right up my alley when my kids were little.

Sarahreadstoomuch 👍 I love this holiday too! 4y

marleed Oh do you have a molinillo!? It‘s a great tool for stirring homemade hot chocolate - and there so beautiful that it‘s tempting to collect them. They are sold on amazon and many are less than $10. Oh the silver metal pitcher is great because you can spin the molinillo with no spillage! 4y

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick This is such a beautiful holiday that should be more widely practiced. Bonus that I love skulls so I'm happy to look at the art. 4y

megnews @marleed no I don‘t! But I‘ll have to check it out on Amazon. Thanks for the tip! 4y

megnews @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I love the art too. I really think this is an amazing holiday. I love how they eat the favorite foods of the ancestor there at the grave. It‘s a wonderful way to keep memories of loved ones alive. 4y

The NF picture book, Día De Los Muertos, immerses students in the heat of Latin American culture celebrating the lives of departed family and friends. This book would be useful in a DR as students experience a Mexican background..decorating sugar skulls, cooking tamales, and more. #UCFLAE3414F19

TristanPool https://www.education.com/lesson-plan/dia-de-los-muertos/ provides opportunities to dive deeper into the meaning of Día De Los Muertos with full group activities. UDL 8.3 with EL 11 provides students with the opportunity to learn more about cultures around them in a more meaningful aspect. 5y

DrSpalding This is an excellent book to incorporate into a social studies unit! 4y

I‘m drinking hot bean water also known as coffee also known as what sustains me. Out of a cup my best friend brought to me after her last trip home to mexico! I‘m teaching middle school today and then closing at the library so it‘s gonna be a long exhausting day! #mondaymorningbeverage

This is our first year with an ofrenda in our home celebrating Día de los Muertos. The celebration happens to be the same week as the anniversary of my grandma‘s passing, so I think that‘s also helpful for my kids who remember and miss her.

This book offers a concise look at this joyful celebration of life.
