A sweet cultural lesson

On Thursday, Nov. 1, the students at the North Fork Community Montessori School, a Delta County public school, celebrated Dia de los Muertos as part of Spanish class. Pictured above is the “primary” class, aged 3 to 6. Jennie Chavez, the Spanish language instructor, gave “instrucciones” in Spanish as the children made “calaveras” (skulls) out of sugar and then decorated them with colored frosting.
