What educators are saying
One of my favorites lessons to do. I did it last year and my students loved learning about alebrijes. Will do this year again!
Working hard in my Art Room to eliminate stereotypes and educate my students about the beautiful traditions and cultures around the world. This was a perfect addition to my curriculum. The kids were obsessed with creating their own unique alebrijes and learning their history.
