This week, we finished our Tu y Yo unit focusing on a food that we all like to eat...tortillas! In rural Guatemala, tortillas are a part of every meal. They're made fresh with ground corn and cooked over a wood burning stove. Walking through the streets of Santiago, you'll often hear the clap, clap clap of women's hands forming perfectly round tortillas for their daily meals.
Miss Candelaria shared the story, Tortillas by Margarita Gonzalez-Jensen with our class. Next we created a story sequence of the process of making tortillas beginning with harvest of corn and finishing with eating the product. Finally, we made our own tortillas...and ate them!
