This curriculum unit introduces students in grades K-8 to an important Mexican holiday, the Day of the Dead (November 2). The unit provides an overview of the celebration and is divided into two lessons: (1) "Classroom Altar" (with seven typical art and food preparation activities); and (2) "Day of the Dead Procession" (with five arts and crafts activities). Each activity gives complete step-by-step instructions on how to make the arts and crafts and how to prepare the food, including time allotment, materials needed, anticipatory set, procedure, and resources.
