Today we skyped with students from Mexico and they taught us about Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). We leaned that the day of the dead is celebrated all through out Mexico and also celebrated in some other places and religions."The days of the dead are truly a celebration of life. When children dance with caricatures of death, eat skull sugar molds and learn to respect that life is brief, they learn there is a circle to life and to not fear death and then are free to enjoy and appreciate every moment." as the website http://www.unm.edu/~htafoya/dayofthedead.html says.

My lowest score was my Jumping-Jacks at 36 beats per minute. It was really fun and exciting testing our heart beats per minute with a stethoscope.
