Taylor
Parks Elementary School fifth-grade students studied the Mexican celebration “Dia
de los Muertos,” or Day of the Dead.
Mrs.
Fletcher explained that this day has nothing to do with Halloween, but instead
the holiday, which is celebrated mostly in Mexico on November 1-2, is like a
family reunion except the guests of honor are dead ancestors.
The
purpose of Day of the Dead is a joyful time that helps people remember their
deceased family members and celebrate their memories.
