Sugar Skulls


After studying the Mexican tradition of Dia de los Muertos, third grade artists created their own sugar skull in remembrance of someone (loved on, friend, ancestor or pet) who has passed.  Each student created their own sugar skull using their own as well as traditional Mexican symbolism.  Every sugar skull was accompanied by a written piece explaining who it was created to remember.

These will be on display in TTE Town Square through Showcase Night in January.
