Myth masks

We spent quite a few weeks last term working on making myth masks in small groups. We had to be able to work in a group with other people which some people found very difficult at first,l but everyone got much better at it the more we did.

First we had to draw some designs for the masks.

Then we started to draw out the masks and stick cardboard, bubble wrap and rolled up newspaper on them - do you think they look good?

Then we built up papier mache ...

... we painted them ...

... and then used darker colours of paint to make them look better.

Last we used things like feathers, wool, fur and even goats' hair to  add decoration to them.

Here are the finished masks. We're going to use them in drama next term.

Do you know who they all are?
