Just to be clear, here are the four assignments leading to EXHIBICIÓN (Tues. Nov 3):
1. Calavera #1: is about a person's profession or occupation (a skier, a baker, etc). The final product will be refined, written by hand cleanly and on the same paper as Calavera #2 and handed in. (20 pts) 2. Calavera #2: is about a real person who you're having fun describing as a calavera. (A celebrity, a teacher, a politician.) (20 pts) CALAVERAS are due no later than THURSDAY (Oct. 29), already refined and written on one piece of paper by hand. (Please don't use Google translate or we will hand these back to you. If you can't translate it back to us in English, then it's not written at YOUR level, which is all we ask!) 3. Description of your relative/pet/famous person on the Ofrenda de la clase in the back of the classroom. This must be REFINED (corrected) and written beautifully by hand on one of the frames and attached to a picture of that person. The latest this can be finished is MONDAY, Nov. 2. (We should have seen these and helped with refinement before that day.) (15 pts) 4. Calavera Artística: a rendition of ONE OF YOUR CALAVERA POEMS in art form. You can use the cut out skeleton or draw your own. This must be in our hands by Tuesday during class so we can display these at EXHIBICIÓN. (20 pts) 5. EXHIBICIÓN is at the Animas City Theater on Tuesday evening (Nov. 3) from 5-8 p.m. Wear black and yellow if possible, otherwise dark colors; meet school dress code but a little bit nicer. There will be food for sale, face-painting, some Dia de los Muertos crafts, art show of your calaveras pictures and poems, class ofrendas featuring your relatives/pets, dancing by Ballet Folklórico, and a showing of the movie "Book of Life" with free popcorn starting around 6:30. Families are welcome! 6. D.P Update after EXHIBICIÓN: Please take photos during exhibición so you have something to post in class when we do a DP update on Wednesday, Nov. 4. Mainly you'll recount what our Dia de los Muertos celebration was like.
