Ofrenda Symbols Posters

Display the posters around an ofrenda corner or a bulletin board, and use them to introduce one symbol a day before students draw or label their own ofrenda.

Six full-page posters, one for each symbol families place on an ofrenda: el cempasúchil (marigolds), las velas (candles), el pan de muerto, el papel picado, la calavera de azúcar and las fotos. Each poster gives the Spanish name, the English name and two short sentences about what the symbol means.

11 printable resources, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.

These are written for Kindergarten to 5th Grade students, roughly ages 5-11. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Kindergarten to 5th Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
