All of my students want to learn about the Mexican Day "Dia de los Muertos. Our classes want to make their own altars but they cannot afford all the materials, nor can the school. In class, having individual altars allows each student to honor the dead in their family. This helps them with the basic idea of how the Mexican culture honors their dead. As they progress, they will be able to do team and independent work to build camaraderie and able to practice socialization. We will be able to invite other classes and the administration so they too can learn more about the Mexican culture The music used will provide many roles in the program for the students. First and foremost, it will give all students a chance to play music that their loved ones enjoyed. This will enhance the environment in the classroom, and create a beautiful mosaic of culture.
