3D Animal Faces

Help me give my students preplastered gauze for making 3D animal masks. I usually wait until the end of the year, due to limited storage, however, my students are so excited that I am starting early!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Tierney's classroom raised $203

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are very enthusiastic about art. I am always impressed at how they are willing to try any material, and technique that their projects may require. They are great at finding ways to really make the projects reflect who they are as individual artists!

In this project students will choose a continent and an animal from that continent to create

They will learn how to properly and safely use plaster in this project.

They will not only make an realistic animal mask, but as a collaborative project, the will work with other students who chose the same continent, to create a landscape or environment that their animal would be found in. They will hang their masks in that area for our art show representing animals around the world.
