Lesson: Printmaking
Personally, I am fascinated by Printmaking!
Recently I had experienced how printmaking could be done in a public school setting with relatively inexpensive materials.
It was such a fun experience that I would like to create a lesson based off this experience.

Lesson: Mask Making
Learning Objectives:
Examine the role of Masks in religion, society and identity
Examine the functions and messages expressed through symbols and metaphors
Discuss terms Art and Craft
Look at commercial products through function, message, craft
Compare role of commercial artist to that of particular artists
Goals alike and different
Design a work using their own symbols and metaphors
Create a Mask
Resources:
This lesson I want to create masks, while at the same time investigate how masks have been used in cultures as ways of expression. I particularly would like to look at Halloween as the contemporary use of masks, and perhaps other festivals such as Mardi Gras, All Souls Day...
I am not sure, but most likely this lesson will use papier mache as it's medium, since in a classroom setting this would be the easiest way to create the masks.
I'll have to investigate more on how I plan to do this... and will update this later with a more comprehensive lesson plan.
