Day of the Dead Reading Challenge- Digital
By ARIANA PEREZ
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Day of the Dead Digital Reading Challenge
This reading is completely in English to expose students about the beauty of this Mexican celebration. I kept it short and to the point in order for students to completely understand this holiday. I provide visuals to help them picture what they are reading.
