Being that today is Cinco de Mayo, my Crafts classes joined with the Spanish classes to celebrate. My classes made piñatas and the Spanish classes…well…they speak Spanish. Anyway, we tell them the story of how the Mexican Peasants kicked some French Boo-tay and how that battle has been a symbol of the strength and courage found in the Mexican people. Then, we broke open a bunch of piñatas and ate an insane amount of candy. Good times. You totally need to check out the cool piñatas my students made.
Save the pinatas! Play Nintendo!
Pretty cool pinatas though, I must say. Fun stuff!
I should have taken an after shot of the piñatas. They were this huge heap of torn paper. Poor little guys…never had a chance. Anything that is filled with candy around middle schoolers just doesn’t have a chance at life.
