Cinco de Mayo!










In the most diverse city in the world, students learn to balance personal and familial beliefs with an understanding and appreciation of the beliefs and celebrations of others.  This was a Cinco de Mayo party organized by some parents and myself.  Students ate black bean tostadas, arroz con leche and drank ponche.  Emily and Miguel wore traditional Mexican clothing and explained the significance of the holiday by adding researched details to their personal experience.  Finally, children took turns trying to crack open the pinata until it burst and they rushed for candy.
