Identity Masks

2/7/2025

Fifth graders explored self-identity through a creative and reflective art project. They began by sculpting masks using plaster craft, then created mind maps to brainstorm personal traits, interests, and values. Using these mind maps as guides, students collaged imagery and text onto their masks, incorporating magazine clippings, drawings, and symbols to represent their unique identities. The result is a collection of vibrant and meaningful identity mask portraits that showcase their creativity and individuality.
