7th grade field trip to SF for Día de Muertos


On October 26, the 7th graders took a field trip with their Spanish teachers, Ms. Lacy and Ms. Jacquin, to the Mission district in SF.  We went to the Mission Cultural Center exhibit about Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead), and even got to talk with one of the artists about how he created his altar. We walked with Ms. Jacquin to view an alley full of murals (see pics).  We also enjoyed snacking on Mexican-style baked goods, and eating lunch at various taquerias.
