  7. This is how to make a carnival mask.

    • First you get a cardboard and you make a mask shape. (You can make the shape and the size how you want, but you will need help with your parents because small children like year 2 could make a messy mask.)

    • Next you use a sharp knife to cut the cardboard out (Obviously with a parent). (You would need to do the eyes too)

    • After that you will need to get an A3 card paper (not paper)

    • Then you get your cardboard paper that you have cut, and you put it on your card.

    • Trace the card with a pencil and get scissors and cut the paper around the trace.

    To be continued

  8. 1. We had a sheet of paper and we drew the outline of the mask template.
    2. Then we cut out the mask.
    3. Then we decorated our masks with lots of different colours of tissue paper.
    4. After we measured our heads with a strip of paper, and stapled both sides.
    5. Once we finished the crown we attached the mask to the crown with staples.
    6. Then we had to decide where to put the long straws, I had three I put one on the left, one on the right and one at the front.

    I really enjoyed it because we learnt how to make masks with just a little bit of paper.

    (Handy tip.Cut around the mask so it would be easier for the little parts.Use small scissors.)
    3.Then you have to colour it .(please use coloured tissue.)
    4.Now use a piece of paper and then cut them into 3 strips.
    5.Try and make a crown like this, first you have to take two strips and then make a cross.Then make the third strip into a hoop and put them together.
    6.Stick the mask to the crown and there you go.
