Dia de los Muertos - Pick a Person
We are beginning our Dia de los Muertos altars.  As we discussed in class today, each of you will make an altar for a different person.  The person you select can be:
- a personal friend or family member who has passed away
- a celebrity who has passed away
- a fictional character from a book or movie who died in the story

Steps for Tonight:
1. Pick your character – check the lists on the blog to make sure you are the first person to select your person.
2. Write a paragraph about your person.  Name a character trait and explain him/her using OAATS.
