Fourth Grade 2018 Masks

 


It seems that every year fourth grade gets more and more creative with their masks. See 2017 Masks too for more detail one what we discussed during the lesson.  Students started with a plastic animal form but are limited to the Roylco forms from Blick Art Materials.  Then then after applying a later of plaster they are able to transform the masks into their own animals or characters by adding newspaper and tape or model magic to build up for ears, horns, snouts, etc and then add another layer of plaster.  After we are done painting, we were able to add embellishments like feathers and gems with some of the extra money we raised on Artsonia.

After we finished our masks I showed this video to students as another way they can make masks at home with more easily accessible supplies.  


We also watch the video below to see how how a Venetian artists creates his masks.
