Cinco de Mayo!

Cinco de Mayo is a day when Mexico gained it's independence. It's celebrated because it was a war that Mexico was fought against France. It's a day where we celebrate Mexico's culture and heritage.  I think anyone could celebrate the holiday, but I really think Mexico should celebrate this more than us. The reason we celebrate it is because we helped Mexico fight until it was won.  It should become a national because a bunch of people celebrate it even on the southern border of the U.S.  The people really celebrate it are people who are Hispanic-Americans.  I think we all should celebrate it because our nation helped in winning the war.

National No Homework Day is May 6th.  We celebrate it during Teacher Appreciation Week.  The reason we have it is to give teachers a break from their job.  It sounds like a really good idea.  I celebrated it by not doing my homework because I didn't have any homework. It was mighty nice. It was created to get students to get up and go outside.
