Unit  Title:  Intrepid  Masks  

Enduring  Ideas:  Throughout  time  and  across  cultures  mask  making  artists  used  their  creations  for  teaching  tools  or  as  symbols  of  courage.  Why  can’t  we  do  that  today?  

Course:  Intermediate  level  

ELO:  

• Work  from  observation  to  represent  three  dimensional  form  with  technical  authority,  accuracy  of  proportion,  and  Depicting  the  illusion  of  volume  in  responsive  ways.  

• Demonstrate  an  understanding  and  ways  to  assess  development  and  to  defend  one’s  personal  aesthetic.    

• Develop  personal  responses  to  art  problems  exhibiting  the  ability  to  generate  multiple  and  rich  ideas  that  inform  content  rich  work.  

Essential  Questions:  

• What  makes  you  feel  brave?  • How  do  you  make  yourself  fearless?  • What  is  a  mask  and  how  is/was  it  used?  

Exemplar  Artists:

Objectives:  Artists  will  be  able  to  …  

• Develop  a  mask  out  of  mostly  found  objects  that  symbolize  their  fearlessness  and  bravery.  

• Learn  proper  techniques  in  molding  plaster  and  cardboard  to  safely  mold  a  mask.  

• Explore  their  own  abilities  as  an  imaginative  artist  and  what  their  since  of  intrepidness  is  to  them.  

Materials:  Plaster,  cardboard,  saran  wrap  and  found  objects  that  are  safe  with  in  the  school  limits.

1. A  quick  history  lesson/slide  show  on  the  importance  of  masks  in  current  times  and  in  history  and  a  drawing  assignment  on  what  students  masks  will  look  like  to  be  presented  to  the  teacher.  

2. The  teacher  will  demonstrate  each  how  to  safely  applied  plaster  or  make  a  mold  for  plaster  so  the  students  will  not  in  any  way  injure  themselves  or  others.  

3. Collected  found  objects  will  be  presented  and  approved  by  the  teacher  before  work  may  progress  on  the  masks.  

Assessment:  

• Student  will  articulate  to  a  camera  the  skills  and  work  that  went  into  making  his/her  mask,  as  well  as  why  it  represents  how  they  feel  intrepid.  

• The  class  will  hold  a  semi-­‐sort  of  Mardi  Gras  in  the  class  room  to  display  their  masks  (no  beads  or  alcohol  allowed  this  isn’t  the  real  Mardi  Gras).  

Evidence  of  Prior  Knowledge:
