EL DIA DE LOS MUERTOS

On El Dia de Los Muertos we watched a video on the history of it. We made calacas and sugar skulls. I learned that the day of the dead is very improtant in Mexico.They celebrate the dead on the first and second of november hopeing that they will return to the land of the living. On November the first they celebrate the children. On November the second they celebrate the older people. They put up altars with the picture of the deceased. With all four of the element wich are water, fire, earth, and air. I think the video was pretty cool because it helped me learn stuff that i didnt know. What I really liked about the video is that the people show that they still love thier deceased. They celebrate them so they want be for gotten.
