Construction of a mural of the culture in Mexico: the origins of culture.
The theme of culture in the classroom, when it is well organized and focused, is a favorite of the students. Although it involves several activities and lessons, the theme about a mural is a very rewarding undertaking that could involve the cooperation of other teachers and other members of the community. Students from different levels, bilingual and from the mainstream, are able to work together in different activities for a single theme. Murals are fascinating objects that tell stories using several media. They tell a story and have a beginning and an end. Because of this aspect, in the classroom this theme could be divided into several sub-themes. Students have the opportunity to work in teams and to make choices about their tasks.
