PYP Unit: Who We Are*Please note: This product includes a printer friendly version without the blue background*At the beginning of the school year we spend a lot of time getting to know each other and what makes us all unique. We finish up this lesson by learning about crests and then designing our own personal crests. My students love this lesson and I hope yours do as well!

This year Dia de los Muertos fell in the middle of our Sharing the Planet PYP Unit of Inquiry where we learning about forests and plants. I took the opportunity to combine the two and taught them about the cempasuchil and it's significance during the Dia de los Muertos celebration. At the end I gave my Spanish students this template a long with an assortment of materials (and glue) they could use to represent each part of the plant. I hope your students love the activity as much as mine did!
