Spanish Children's book
This is a child's book in Spanish. It highlights the body parts, conditions, and clothing of an everyday life, especially when you're sick. I enjoyed this book because I am a writer, who wants to write books, but it was harder because it was in a different language.

Sugar skull
Spanish
1) I designed the mask with blue and purple coloring and hints of orange and glitter. I decorated itwith those colors mainly because the marigold shade of orange symbolized the death of an adultand the mellow cool colors (blue and purple) described my grandmother’s gentle nature. Theglitter was to highlight certain parts of the mask. The flowers on the mask symbolizes how sheappreciated art and beauty when she was still alive. The sugar skull has similar qualities exceptfor the orange pigments. I was afraid that the orange2) Write a short panegírico (eulogy) in Spanish following the template below:a) Write an introduction that includes who you are. (1-2 sentences) Yo soy su nieta.

My grandmother on my dad’s side passed away. She was 77 and had dementia. It gotprogressively worse over the years, and it was sad for the family. I remembered her as someonewho loved books, learning and sharing her appreciation for art. Gentle and delicate, mygrandmother would never get very angry at her grandchildren. I remember going through herdraw once out of curiosity. She told me not to, but I really wanted to. After she found out, shedid not yell at me, but said it was okay to be a little curious, but to respect other people’s wished.I sort of remembered that.During Thanksgiving, she made beautiful home cooked meals, and brought the familytogether. I was not a huge fan of most of my family members, but my grandmother alwaysinspired me to see the better side of life. When I was younger, she took me to New York to visitthe Metropolitan. I really enjoyed those times with her, even if I wasn’t really sure what wasgoing on. I knew that she liked to hang out with me.I didn’t have many people to choose from when making the sugar skull. Most of myfamily members are living, or I did not know them at all. My biological family is unknown, sothere is no one that I really connect with on that level. I was kind of surprised that mygrandmother was so accepting of me. My grandfather did not like me very much because of my“not being white” like my other family members. I assumed that all of the older people in myfamily would be like that, but I was wrong. It was only that one grandparent. My grandmotherwas always kind to me and tried to show me how to be a good person. I was not very close toher, but when we spent time together, I felt that I learned something by the end of the day. Eventhough I have memories of her, its hard to say a lot about her because I did not know her verywell.
For the sugar skull, I used the same color scheme, aside from the orange. I did not wantthe orange to bleed into the other colors. The blue and purple would just mud up into brown if
they mixed. I really tried to incorporate glitter into my design in order for it to pop. Mellowcolors were always my grandmother’s favorite colors. Purple and blue symbolizes the gentlenessof her nature. Día de los Muertos made me rethink what I pictured death as. Death is something thathappens to everyone. Instead of mourning and talking about the person, I think that this holidayreally does celebrate and respect the person who has died. Celebrating a loved one who has diedis better than mourning. I think that it is more personalized than Western funerals. Itcommemorates someone while still making the best of the situation.
It was cool spending time writing about the dead. I really appreciated the project once it was over. 
Eulogy (Skull/Mask)
We commemorated a special person in our life for Dia de Los Muertos by decorating a skull and a mask in their honor. Unfortunately, my skull broke but I created my mask in honor of my aunt Rose.
