Today in our grocery store, the children created a coffee shop where they made and served ‘coffee’ to their friends. It was a fun activity, allowing them explore their imagination, practice social skills, and role-play real-world scenarios! #hiawathapride #d100inspiresIt

Students looking at their ofrendas might feel a deep connection to their culture and traditions, such as honoring ancestors and celebrating memories. This experience encourages students to appreciate their heritage and the importance of remembrance #hiawathapride #d100inspires
