That says "Hello from Mexico" in Spanish!
Everyone in the class told me words that they knew in Spanish. A few told me number words, some told me color words and then multiple kids said "Hola!" Here is the link to Google Translator so your child can learn more words. :)
A
few of the facts we discussed about Mexico:

Clothing: They wear sombreros, jeans, pants, cotton shirts. Women will wear clothing with lots of embroidery.
Here is a link to the slideshow. :)
Since we are so close to Mexico and everyone remembered to pack a swimsuit in their suitcase... we skipped flying and "swam" on over. We watched our Power Point and the class LOVED hearing about Mt.Popocatepetl! Then we watched a video of a Miriachi band and made a red poinsettia. While lining up for lunch, we watched Head Shoulders Knees and Toes in Spanish. The class loved it!! :)
Enjoy watching the videos with your child!
