My Project

Cinco de Mayo provides the perfect opportunity to teach children about Mexican traditions in a fun way. Even though celebrating Cinco de Mayo originated in Mexico, the day is more prevalent in the United States. So, it is the perfect time to learn a little about Mexican culture with easy Mexican-inspired activities everyone can enjoy!

I have several Hispanic students and I would love to be able to bring something to the classroom that they celebrate in their culture.

This will also introduce the rest of the students to something new.

The decorations will really set the tone for a big celebration by transforming the classroom into a colorful, happy, setting.

I want my students to understand the meaning of Cinco de Mayo while having a blast getting to know about Mexico’s rich culture! The books will help us learn more about this celebration.
