  8. Sarah M. –

    Used for Spanish club to make our own calaveras and then to decorate bulletin boards and the ofrenda. They really enjoyed creating the drawings rather than just coloring them in.

  9. jessica amburgey –

    My students loved having this as a fast finisher activity. It was really easy for me to add some great images to our LMS and give students a chance to get artistic on paper!

  10. Kristen S. –

    Designing calaveras is one of my favorite things to do with my Spanish students, but we are distance learning. I was so thankful for this so that we could still do art from afar!

    So easy to use! I really like all the different options/examples students are given to pull from while they create their own calavera. Gracias!

  16. Amy K. –

    Great activity for Day of the Dead. Initially I was concerned that my non-artistic students would have a hard time doing this, but majority of my students created beautiful calaveras! The step-by-step instructions are really helpful. Love the banner that comes with it as well, so that you can display the students’ work.

  17. Amanda D. –

    Excited to see how these turn out when I use it with my students!
