May 6th

In celebration of Cinco de Mayo, in kindergarten we watched a short kid-friendly video clip explaining what the holiday is, what it means and how it is celebrated. This was good for the kids because they weren't sure about what it was. After that we set up activities at each table, where the students learned more about the Mexican traditions and all the other holidays. They stayed at each station for about 15 minutes, either copying sentences about Cinco de Mayo, Coloring pictures including the Mexican flag and making a charts. These activities covered just about every subject and the kids really learned a lot about Mexican traditions.
