Description

Kick off your Day of the Dead lessons with this easy, print-and-go, one-page reading passage! It’s perfect for teaching your students the history of Day of the Dead. 


Help correct the misconception that Day of the Dead is “Mexican Halloween” and teach them the tru meaning behind the holiday.

Your Hispanic students will love seeing elements that may reflect their culture. And non-Hispanic students will discover the beauty of another culture.

Here's what you'll get:

  • A one-page reading passage describing Day of the Dead
  • An 8-question reading comprehension quiz
