Introduction:

-When do we wear masks in American Culture? Students gather and we discuss masks in
-What are your experiences wearing masks? American culture. We start to think about
-Why do people wear masks? masks around the world.

Development:

Using the PowerPoint presentation and visual
examples, we will discuss different cultures
uses of masks. We discuss how different masks
look in design, how the different designs make
us feel, and what story they tell. We start
discussing how the students would represent
themselves through a mask. We think about the
use of color, line, and pattern in self-expression
in masks.
Students respond to visual presentation and
actively participate in discussion. Students
talk about what they see in the masks,
describing design, color, line, and pattern.
Students discuss how they might express
themselves through a mask.

The task is assigned to create a mask that tells a Students listen to teacher demonstration

how to cut out the mask, explaining how to use
symmetry. Teacher also demonstrates how to
place the eyes, and emphasizes that they will
not cut out the eyes themselves.
Examples are put in a place where all students
can see and refer to. Teacher hands our
tagboard sheets to each student. Teacher
prompts questions: What shape are you
making?
Conclusion:
Teacher gives a 5 minute warning for clean-up
to make finishing touches. The last 5 minutes
are spent cleaning up, students will clean up
their own table.
Students work on the base of their masks.
Students will draw on eyes but not cut them
out.
Students finish their bases for the day, and
turn them into a designated spot. Students
clean up their area.

Introduction:

-What did we learn about masks last class?
-What design elements did you see in other
cultures masks?
-What types of colors and patterns express who
you are?
-How are you going to design a mask that is
self-expressive
Students gather and we reflect on last class.
We discuss what elements of design we saw
in other cultures masks, and discuss how
they are going to use elements of design to
create a self-expressive mask.

Critical Comments and Reflections:

(Problems, successes, and what to think about for next lesson)
This lesson was extremely successful for this group. Having a demonstration of each material
is key to keep things running smoothly. The first day we didnt have a full demonstration of
how to properly cut out the masks, showing them that when its folded in half and only one side
is drawn on when you open it, it makes a symmetrical mask. Having a thorough discussion on
emotions and feelings of colors also made strong connections with past knowledge with the
students.
