Special Powers Masks
In this lesson, the students made masks with their ideal special powers. First, they brainstormed ideas and drew their mask and the special power it would have. To make the masks, the students used plaster strips on top of plastic molds to create a face shape, then added horns or beaks using newsprint and plaster. When the plaster was dry, the masks were painted with acrylic paint after they learned about mixing color.
