I had to miss this week since my youngest has pink eye but Teacher Nalani and Alina helped the children to create some great masks! Here is the photo that they sent me: 
Here is some more interesting information about masks from our Theatre Arts book:
"The power the mask give the actor has been respected throughout theatre history. The earliest theatre masks were worn by Greek actors in 6th century BC. Made of wood, leather, or linen, the mask revealed the character's gender, age and personality. "

Making masks can be about fun but it can also help actors to portray something about themselves or about the character that they play.
