Screams of delight for Michelle Obama in Mexico
By DARLENE SUPERVILLE, Associated Press Writer
Wednesday, April 14, 2010 at noon

MEXICO CITY — Michelle Obama stepped from her black SUV and into a sea of screams, cheers and squeals of delight that filled the sun-splashed courtyard of a public elementary school Wednesday in Mexico's capital.

Dozens of 6- to 12-year-old students - some in costumes, others in gym clothes - welcomed America's first lady with a show.

One group dressed as Aztecs in white paper costumes and caps with multicolored feathers performed a Mexican ritual dance. Another group did calisthenics for Mrs. Obama, whose cause at home is a campaign against childhood obesity. Other kids entertained with a lively twist-style dance, and they were followed by a chorus that serenaded her.

Mrs. Obama joined in at one point, clasping hands with a group that had formed a circle and singing along with students at the Escuela Siete de Enero, which is in one of Mexico City's poorer neighborhoods.
