The students have been curious what Cinco De Mayo is since I put it on our May Calendar. I explained it was a Mexican Celebration over the French Army that has become more of a pop-culture celebration. They had never experience it before.
We started making Pinatas on monday using leftover scholastic forms. This morning, I did an activity with Spanish Numbers "Hey, Uno like the game uno? That means one?"
I had a playlist of Spanish music including the chicken dance, Mexican Hat song, and La Cucaracha. Even my student who doesn't normally likes music, got into the spirit. I love how music changes the mood.
I think no matter your age and where you live: Pinatas are just fun! So glad I got to share this tradition with them.
