ITALIAN CLASS MAKES CARNEVALE MASKS

2/28/2020

We love these Carnevale masks students made in Ms. McSherry's Italian class this week! Carnevale is an Italian word derived from the Latin carnem (meat) and levare (remove), corresponding to English "carnival". It is a traditional Christian celebration which marks the beginning of Lent, the period of 40 days before Easter during which no meat is eaten.
