With the cold weather, here's some ideas of how we've kept ourselves busy!:)

Mexican Murals

During the month of January we have been studying the culture of Mexico in Social Studies.  This past week we are creating a mural in a group of 2-3 students to show what we learned.  Murals include sugar candy skulls from Day of the Dead, the Mayan Step Pyramids, the Mexican flag with the legendary eagle eating a snake on a cactus from the Aztec culture.  We decided to create murals based on the Mexican artist we learned about, Diego Rivera, who was known for his murals documenting people and event from around the world.
