Abstract | In the Puerto Rican Carnivale, a traditional figure seen in many parades is the "vejigante," a clown-like character who wears a colorful mask. The author's kindergarteners were learning about Carnivale in Spanish class, so making vejigante masks of their own in art class was a great idea--and an opportunity to teach them papier-mache skills and painting techniques. To start the lesson, the author and her class viewed photographs of vejigante masks and discussed the various emotions they conveyed. Some masks are meant to scare the crowd, others make them laugh and nearly all of them amaze people with their elaborate designs. The students enjoyed the colorful and eye-catching masks and tried to guess how they were made. (ERIC). |
