On November 2, some Spanish classes at the middle school recently discussed the Mexican holiday that is becoming more popular, The Day of the Dead. It sounds like a scary or sad holiday, but it is actually one of joy and remembrance. Some students made some Day of the Dead treats to share while we talked about and watched a video about the holiday. The holiday actually runs from October 31 to November 2. A video clip provides more background. Be sure to catch the new movie “Coco” coming out at the end of November. It’s about a boy that experiences the other side of The Day of the Dead.
